[SD Transplant]

Initially, a need for some sanity and unbiased RE information for a 2006 school paper (Rich’s research was clear, easy to follow, and it had the common sense that was lacking everywhere else). Later, after I got to know a few opinionated piggs during some debates relative to market/RE ( Powayseller, PerryChase ….old timers etc), I realized that I wasn’t alone in my thirst for a deeper and perhaps more accurate information vis-a-vis the local RE market & local Econ trends.

In 2007, after I accepted the red pill (as many other piggs), I got hooked. Why? This is a diverse forum for other subjects/opinions not just RE:
– we surpassed the NAR in terms of forecasting accuracy many years & many quarters (see Rich’s charts)
– we were competing with PBS’s “car talk” piece for a while because there were so many auto related posts & reviews
– we could rival the NRA relative to gun selections/information/reviews
– we get out of hand when it comes to politics, yet we agree to disagree
– if you ever need a personal budget question, kitchen remodel, salsa receipt, contractors, special deals, latest news…..you had only to click on your personal link
– if you wanted to know if there are still honest realtors in SD County that prefer to share real information rather than serve koolaid for a future sale lead….look no further(SD Realtor; sdrealtor; & Urban realtor…..).
– if you had questions about mortgage loans or financing (HLS comes to mind along with many other great posters.)
– I could go on & on…..but Piggington to me is our local Drudge Report + CNN + CNBC + FOX + CBS + NAR + Dataquick combined yet lacking the feedback features & fun 🙂
