Participant[quote=SD Realtor]I hear ya Dr Boom. However I think that the 3rd party sites WILL NOT want to display the true nature of the market. Some of us have been posting for the past several months that a large percentage of the Active inventory was not active, only to be ridiculed and accused of trying to create an illusory market.[/quote]
No ridicule from me: I’m with you.
Anyone who makes a few calls on supposedly “active” listings soon finds out what the score really is, so I don’t think it’s much of a surprise to the clueful.
[quote]The bottom line is that if Joe Consumer gets on line to shop on Redfin or Zillow for a home and sees his effective inventory reduced by 50 or 60% from the already ridiculously low volume it is currently at, then he will turn off the computer and go to the beach instead. [/quote]
You may be right. It wouldn’t deter me or my wife, on the other hand, and I don’t think we’re unique. If anything, showing the true state of things might create more bidding wars due to a higher perception of scarcity.
[quote]So maybe it is my pessimistic self talking here but I bet the third party subscribers will be somewhat… methodical in the approach of how to present the updated MLS… if they do anything at all. [/quote]
If one of them does it, I think the rest will have to follow.

In my current state of mind (frustrated apartment renter with two small children and an “accepted”–no, wait, “Contingent”–offer on a slice of short sale heaven) I’m likely to lash out at almost anyone. 🙂
EDI in all its putrid forms is almost guaranteed to get a rise out of me even when I’m in a good mood.

May 12, 2009 at 6:16 PM in reply to: Sandicor Steps up to plate to improve active inventory stats! #397476Participant[quote=SD Realtor]What will be MORE interesting is the third party providers. In all honesty this should throw a total wrench in the user interfaces they provide however I bet none of them change a thing. They will more then likely keep the IDX feeds as they are so that the contingent category simply feeds into Active status. However you never know![/quote]
In my professional experience, you’ll quickly see who hired the really smart (and lucky) database architect in the first place and who didn’t. The ones who did will have a dozen lines of mostly database code to write for the core application and then will go mess around with their reports for a little while; the ones who didn’t are screwed because they thought the world would never change and hard coded stuff everywhere.
I will say that both camps are probably somewhat screwed by the very nature of EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) driven projects: they’re at the mercy of some other bozo’s random notions about data structures and transports (this means you, Electricity Reliability Council Of Texas!) and are doing well if they can spackle over the gaps.

ParticipantI think you’re on solid ground. Further, the very definition of “unemployment”, just like the Consumer Price Index, is changed to suit the spinmeisters’ needs.
See shadowstats.com if you want more realistic numbers.
