CDMA ENG
ParticipantCDMA ENG…
So SDduuuude is probably wondering why I haven’t chimmed in. I am one of the few Vegas Native’s out there (and yes I know the real names of everyone in the movie Casino) and I am still connected to the town via freinds and family though I lay my head in the Loma Portal. Everyone is right about not buying. Without getting into details that town has not seen the worst of it yet and prices will only go down. The rest of the paragraph is antedotal but I think serves as the writing on the wall.
1) My mother is a hiring agent at the Clark County School District and is seeing application for people WAY over qualified for janitor, clerks, and other lowing paying positions.
2) Friends in the construction business has seen all work stop at the residential level. Big projects such as schools, casinos, and other bond fund work continues but beyond that there is no “works” in planning.
3) Anytime I am home I am seeing new and old house vacant, in some cases, for years.
4) There is no real industry in that town other than Hospitality. Once the building stops those in the building trade will have to also give up thier homes either through foreclosers or short sales. After all they are not going to be able to maintain the same lifestyle when there are 3 bodies for 1 job.
5) Vegas has been in a boom before 85′. I think it is time the party is over.
All this leads to lower prices in the market. In fact the cities biggest problems right now is muck filled abandon swimming pools and the DEA’s chasing meth labs from vacants.
My two cents,
I know she wants a home for the child but it really isnt in thier best interest right now.

ParticipantDear John,
I am broke and have burned through my savings try to maintain the lease on my Benz. So in order to avoid a potentially difficult, and embarrassing, lifestyle change my colleagues and I have decided to inundate you with propaganda, both at the national level as well as grassroots. Now is the time to buy because I have realized that retraining in a time where many experience people are being laid off is just too difficult. Also, if you buy now I will not have to return the Benz and will still be able get a nice commission on a higher price home then in 6 months.
God Bless Friends,
Desperate
P.S. Piggington’s is the work of the Devil
(Of course this Jib is not aimed at Piggington’s favorite friend SDRealtor. I owe you a lot man and will gladly buy a beer if we ever meet.)

My grandfather is a succesful barber. Still working 65 years later and has nine chairs in his shop. Only works because of the social aspect of it. A true old time barber shop complete with the good ol’ boys sitting outside. He caters to a blue collar town.
I asked him once how he fairs during recession. He told me business is always up during that time. Claims it is a cheap way for people to keep thier self-esteem up or looking good incase of a job interview. Hence he does better.
By the way he charges 10.50 for a haircut.
Seems to support the logic of this thread.
Take care,
