sdr My acerbic wit is turned off for now. There are many better statisticians here than I am. I think in your claim that Your CV monitor creation will be a “bellweather” for the County contradicts correct ideas that you have already expounded on here. Mostly that real estate is local,very local, even when the trend is almost universal. I don’t agree that you can pick a “bellweather” so recklessly. I fear you doing it when the probable intent is to rub my nose in it for as long as your data shows that it is strong which alse has no relevance to how this tiff got going anyhow. San Carlos has a much better listing pending ratio . It might be bullet proof we just don’t know.(It has shown weakness on and off) Other areas might have terrible ratios ,long DOM but prices are strong.Maybe the populace is rich and stable there? If they ride out the eminent bust the declines will look minmal when we look back on this period of time.We can’t make them sell their houses & land, nor can we make generalizations of the market based on what they do.
