You really think logistics is the problem? I think its all the foreclosure moratoriums. In summer 2008 they were cranking out REOs at a fairly brisk pace or at least MUCH faster than they’re doing it now. This makes me think:

1) They did not have a premeditated plan before the bust to hold back foreclosures. They may have come up with this plan in the last 6 months, but not before last summer.

2) Logistics are not playing a part in getting the REOs on the market. They were able to do it logistically in summer 2008, they should be able to logistically do it now.

Thanks for the input SD Realtor. So the benefit of a short sale for the buyer is that you can get the property below market value?

This guy says,”I’m not going to say it’s impossible to get a great bargain on a short sale, but it is highly unlikely.”

I would think this is a good thing. Sounds like a lot of the inventory issues is that the banks can’t process the homes fast enough.

If these bulk buyers come in and basically take a cut of the bank’s money in order to get the home on the market, that’s fine.

Remember these homes have to come on the market at some point anyway. If there are too many of them, it will force the price to come down.

These bulk investors are not going to be living in the homes. Families will eventually make their way into these homes.

If there are more homes than there are families, the price will drop.

My opinion is that Stewart opted escalate the issue with Cramer due to Cramer’s critical analysis of Obama – not because he genuinely wanted to get into the nuances of financial journalism.

That is how Stewart operates. He rarely ever debates people on the merits of anything. He instead goes after them ad hominem – finding any instance of contradiction they have ever had or a personal mistake they made in their life, and then magnifies it in Daily Show style.

[/quote]

I agree with this. If you watch Morning Joe, Scarborough rips Stewart a new one and Cramer does NOT join in and in fact defends Stewart a bit by saying he’s a comedian.
