Often, the reporters do interview realtors, but they get so much BS! Realtors will say, “People want to live here, so they prices will keep rising”, or “They’re not making any more land so prices will never go down”, or “The economy is good so prices can’t drop”. I think realtors are worse than the economists in saying things which are simply not supported by the facts.
Now if they would interview you Jim, we’d get a straight story. Have you ever contacted a reporter? Perhaps you think it’s hopeless.
