idea for stabilizing the housing market.

[quote=briansd1][quote=carlsbadworker]People need to understand: foreclosure is not the problem; foreclosure is the solution.
A housing bust is only devastating because it reflects the huge mis-allocation of capital during the housing boom.[/quote]

I agree.

But the problem is what do you do with the millions of people thrown out onto the streets?

Drama much? Thrown on the streets? What makes you think they’ll be homeless?

These people had places to live before they purchased homes they could not make payments on… they can go back to renting, living with parents, house-shares, etc. My mom’s parents never purchased a house and lived a very comfortable, middle class existence. They were never “thrown out on the streets” just because they didn’t own a home. Home ownership is not a requirement for a roof over your head.

brian – you’ve said this a couple of times on other threads. Come on. You know damn well (especially as a renter?) that people will not be thrown out onto the streets. They can go back to renting and buy later when prices become affordable and within their means.

Screw the skateboarding motto.

RENTING IS NOT A CRIME!!!! 😉

Thanks for helping brian understand this, UCGal and jpinpb.

It gets old hearing about people being “thrown onto the streets.” No, they’re not being thrown onto the streets (like renters would be if they stopped paying their rent???) they can rent just like so many of us who’ve been waiting this damn thing out. No more drama!

Here is a something from JTR’s site

“Do buyers pay more when sellers’ real estate agents are attractive?

Apparently so: Preliminary results of a study from Old Dominion University suggest that, put bluntly, the more attractive a male finds his female agent, the higher the price he’ll probably be willing to pay. Women also seem to be susceptible to attractive female agents, although not to the degree that men are. (Neither women nor men seem to respond much to attractive males.) “I’d like to think I wouldn’t fall prey to it,” says Seiler. “But I think that the people who were in our study would have said the exact same thing.”
