Me too … still an owner for both lifestyle and investment diversification purposes.
Regarding demographics, sounds like you are familiar with Harry Dent, who predicted a long slide in RE starting in 2011 or thereabouts, based on boomer demographics.
I want to know is what impact the group he called the “echo-boomers” are going to do. This generation is nearly as large as the boomers.
Since I am very near the null in US births between the boomers and echo boomers (I’m 39) I feel like I am almost always in a different stage than the rest of the poulation and naturally am counter-trend.
What impact do you think the echo boomers (~”gen Y”) will have on the next RE cycle ?
I think you and I are probably both between these large demographic popoulation peaks.
