Welcome back and good to see you still lurking regularly

You assume I lurk regularly. You make a lot of erroneous assumptions.

If my true colors are taking EP to task for throwing CA (which created great wealth for him and his family for decades) under the bus because he disagrees with it politically i’ll wear those proudly every time!

Ha! No, your true colors aren’t taking EP to task for throwing CA under the bus. Your true colors are claiming “game, set match” with nothing to back it up, and being condescending and disputatious while you’re doing it.

If you took the time to actually read you’d see I mentioned Sacto earlier and specifically why I did not include it as it bears a lot more in common with places like UT, Id, AZ, TN, LV etc than SoCal or the Bay Area.

Again, an erroneous assumption (that I didn’t see you’d mentioned Sacramento earlier). You say real estate is local. You bust that out frequently when somebody tries to use non-local data to make a point. Encinitas is not Escondido. But St. George is the same as Salt Lake City? Is real estate not local anymore?

Those 3 Utah MSA’s make up well over 80% of the population of UT and are very representative of what is happening all over Utah including St George which is just too small to be followed by the major data collectors.

A bold and quite possibly erroneous assumption. Yet stated as fact. Do you think nobody notices that? Or are you so high on your opinions that you think of them as facts?

The entire SG metro is no bigger than Oceanside and I’d bet $$ to donuts it will follow what is happening in the rest of the reported UT areas as there is no industry to support what has happened there with RE
[/quote]
The entire of the SG metro area is no bigger than Oceanside, but you’d still bet that the same thing is happening there as is happening in a much larger metro area (Salt Lake City) 300 miles away? And you’re giving odds, too? You are certainly free to make that wager. But it doesn’t fly to claim “game, set and match” based on zero data for St. George and nothing but leading indicators from a much larger metro area clear across the state.

As for this thread and EP this thread stays active and pops up regularly.

Ok, if 4 months with no activity is “active.”

where we divurge is perpetual attacks on CA wihtou ever bringing a single data point[/quote]
Given that you’re taking jabs at St. George without a single data point, I’d say the word you were looking for wasn’t “divurge” but “converge.”
You know, if you’d said, “there’s a general trend of leading indicators going in the wrong direction in areas similar to St. George, so it’s possible or maybe likely that St. George will see a downturn soon,” that would be one thing. An argument could be made that it might even be reasonable, even though it goes against your beloved trope that “real estate is local.” But, no, you come out with “game, set match.” Again, your true colors. Claiming victories not won. Being condescending. Tooting your own horn and not hearing that your horn sounds off-key and raspy.

Back on ignore list you go[/quote]
[quote=zk]
Oh, no! You’re going to ignore me! What shall I ever do without your attention?!
Oh, wait, never mind. If I actually gave a damn, I wouldn’t need to worry. You won’t ignore me. You’re not capable of it.[/quote]
Well, you lasted for about two of my posts before you couldn’t resist. Can’t say I didn’t see that coming!
