I know this is totally hearsay, but the GF gave notice yesterday at her apt complex, and the lady was noticably upset. Much more than would be expected. Turns out the maintaince/handman guy admitted that 15 other apartments have also given notice in the past month. 127 apts in the complex, so we are talking 10% in the last 30 or so days.

I dont know where they are all going, but that seems high. Gotta suck to loose that many renters. (this isnt a “luxery” complex BTW)

Dont worry, if it is actually true, when released it will be revieled to be a totally abstract and very unpopular plan, something akin to all the other bailout plans that have initally seemed so promising only to be discovered to be a fraud or just unworkable.
There will be income requirments, interest rate requirments, payback requirments, and funding limits that will make this more government pork that does little else than stink up the place.

I keep wondering when/if the powers that be will realize that this is just as harmful as helpful.

[quote=paramount]Schwarzenegger should be recalled immediately – he’s worse than Davis.

The gov’t thinks everyone should sacrifice except for them.

Shrink the gov’t by 30%, cut pensions, cut these golden parachutes now.

It won’t happen though – we are at the mercy of state employee union bosses. [/quote]

Your kidding right? Arnold is the only one trying to do the right thing. The guy has been trying to do it since he got there. Too bad no one listened to him back in 2003 when something could have been done about this mess. He tried to go it alone and got bitchslapped in that special election by the unions and the idiots who call themselves “voters” but dont know anything about the issues.
He has already laid off the state temp workers. He managed to make every state employee he could take a 9% pay cut. He does his best to work with both sides, you can tell this because neither side likes him. The man is doing everything he can, considering he has to work with that corrupt sespool called the state senate/assembly.

Id vote for him again in a heart beat.

I can say that rents are all over the board. Some places seem to think that itll be a good idea to raise rents yet again, others are lowering them, some are trying to rent at par.

It seems that the worst asset to try to rent is a 2/2 condo. They are all over the place, and I dont remember any for $1200month a few months ago.

http://sandiego.craigslist.org/csd/apa/1029085235.html

Please notice that this is the least desirable area of MM.

Also notice that they are advertising 1/2 months rent deposit and take pets. Rather than lowering rents, I get the feeling that alot of LL’s are trying to spur renters by lower deposits and allowing pets. They are also doing the “rest of the month free” or “half off first months rent” thing. Whatever they can do to get a renter, without actually lowering the rent, they are doing.

SFR’s are holding the line mostly, but MM is generally the cheapest SFR’s to rent in the area. They are also popular amongst students as you can cram 3-6 into them and split that rent up alot. It is alot harder to do that in an Apt/condo.

Id say that SFR rents are holding, Condo rents are falling slightly, and incentives like low deposits and single month discounts are increasing.

Interestingly I have noticed another trend is to only be signing 6-8 month leases. I think this is good for Military and student renters, who move often. I also believe that many LL’s believe weak rents to be a temporary thing, and want to be able to get “full rent” as soon as possible.
