ParticipantRents tend to be pretty sticky. That’s why they appeal to investors and they’re the last thing to drop in the market. The two things that can hurt them are substitution and net migration out of the area. Substituion being that more people share a given unit. Net negative migration speaks for itself. If CA persists in being substantially above the country in unemployment, I think we’ll see migration out start to ramp up. Substitution is tougher to track. But looking at “For Rent” signs and other such market indicators can give you an idea of where it’s heading. Compensating for seasonal trends is also advisable.

ParticipantAn Internet blog does not come close to MSN or Bubblevision in reach and scope of market. It’s not about having access. It’s about knowing something even exists. And MSM has a strong hold in this arena. The front page of any major newspaper, TV (Cable and network), radio…..
Advertising is alive and well.I never said anything about not paying attention to MSM. How can one avoid it?! But one has to do a lot more investigating to get the viewpoint not expressed by them.
How many people read this site,and then write something on it as well? Yet everyone’s got an opinion on real estate. Wonder where they got it???ParticipantAn Internet blog does not come close to MSN or Bubblevision in reach and scope of market. It’s not about having access. It’s about knowing something even exists.

ParticipantMSM is pervasive and takes virtually zero effort to pay attention to them since one is bombarded with their viewpoints on a daily basis. That’s why it’s called “main stream media”. They are always way late with a call on investments and talk the book of their sponsors. Hardly what I would call “alternative”. I would define “alternative” as that which is not commonly available.
MSM offers the same story which ever one you would chose to listen to. Rogers differs with Mish on many investments. If you had done your homework you’d know how there’s often many disagreements between these blogs. But that would take some effort and thought.
