“When would you reluctantly agree to share a bed with a Bloodhound? When the alternative is a Great Dane.”
Is there actual new demand – and if so, where did it come from? If the demand is highly-targeted to where the riots aren’t – as we all already know it is – which domiciles are being vacated to soak up every square inch of suburban dirt, from 5 to 5,000 miles away from the conflicts?
Long marketing times? Price cuts? Listings withdrawn or never offered? Or is the demand coming mainly from rental housing? Are apartment vacancies surging? Everywhere, or just where the riots are?
I don’t pay for ordinary information – it’s how this blog got started – so it could be I’m missing something.
No new babies – too much the contrary – and despite the “debate”, immigration is a trickle, month-over-month, against a population of 330 million.
The population is not increasing. What is the source of the demand being ballyhooed in the lands where the dandelions grow?
