IMO he used quotes from realty insiders like a guy from dataquick to paint a rosy picture. He used data from June so that he wouldn’t have to use the horrible numbers from July. Why else would he not use July numbers when they have been out for a while now. My other theory is that he wrote this same article for the press a year ago and just cut and pasted it and changed the dates!
Seriously, this is inexcusable. Anyone who buys a home this week from Prudential should have grounds to sue him if prices fall based on his gaurantee that prices will be solid. The CEO of a major realtor literally gauranteeing that prices will remain solid! What’s next?
