Let’s start here; overregulation creates bubbles, not speculators. West Virginia University Professor of Finance, Alexander Kurov, offers an op-ed which comes to the conclusion that speculation from Reddit bros could wreak havoc on capital markets: So markets fail sometimes, and we need sensible regulation and enforcement to make such failures less likely. Taken in isolation, […]
Q: Why is it so hard to buy at the top?A: That’s how you know it’s the top.Who’s listing actual fee-simple dirt? Could life get any better? Representing hypothetical cubes of air-space amidst spookily-vacant concrete canyons? Not so much. I just heard that J.P. Morgan is calling its people back to the office, so maybe […]
Tyler Durden: It was just seven short years ago that the prices at the epicenter of the housing bubble, Los Angeles, CA rose by 50% every six months as the nation experienced its first parabolic move higher in home prices courtesy of Alan Greenspan’s disastrous policies: a time when everyone knew intuitively the housing market […]

Ever wonder about the relationship between gold and real estate? Jim Klein got me to thinking about a “store of wealth”, when I postulated that there is no gold bubble: I think people can get snookered into thinking it’s a great “investment.” It’s protection, it’s barter; it’s a store of wealth. To me, that’s not […]
I’ve been a bit slow on this one. I have been wondering what sector of the economy was going to over inflate and burst next. The answer has been right in front of me the whole time but the reason I did not see it very clearly is because I was wondering what part of […]
I don’t know if you’re familiar with Randall O’Toole from the Cato Institute, but he’s much better reading than Lawrence Yun. I was just acquainted with one of his latest works entitled How Urban Planners Caused the Housing Bubble. If you’re in real estate, it is a must read. I live in a strict Growth […]
In 2002, Business Week talked about “Real Estate’s Bubble Cities“. Barron’s said it’s a better time to be “a seller rather than a buyer”. But, 2002 wasn’t the bursting of a bubble. Prices didn’t start to fall until three years had passed from those piece’s respective publication dates. And when they did, prices fell for […]

Was a big-time Sixth Avenue media giant flim-flammed by a Gilbert, AZ, housewife, nom de guerre “Twist,” who has set herself up as an authority on the residential real estate market and its feverishly-sought collapse? From BusinessWeek Online’s Hot Property: In Phoenix, the numbers seem to go kerflooey every December. In December 2005, the number […]
Well. That was even more lame than I expected. Foghorn Leghorn–er, Keith at HousingPanic has declared war by commanding his troops to… read. And to read BloodhoundBlog of all things! Yeah, that’ll work… The specific marching orders are pretty stupid, but that’s hardly a surprise. The troops are supposed to prove that the Phoenix housing […]
I won’t have September’s numbers until tomorrow, but the news is not good for bubbleheads — which is to say that the news is not bad for everyone else. Meanwhile, there’s this from The Business Journal of Phoenix: Some of Arizona’s leading economists believe the housing slowdown is a short-lived bump in the road that […]
Ahem: I am rooting for an epic housing collapse, a disastrous recession, the collapse of the stock market, a complete replacement of our current partisian leadership, a questioning of our country’s current economic model, and a severe and historic financial meltdown. I told you so… Technorati Tags: blogging, real estate
Apparently, about 200 Phoenix-area Realtors got together Thursday night for some group therapy: About 200 agents gathered at the Southeast Valley Association of Realtors in Mesa to hear tips from top achievers on how to sell homes and handle clients in this transitional market. We don’t belong to SEVRAR, so we weren’t invited, but that’s […]
The BubbleBrains swooped in en masse today, having only just now discovered my 21 reasons to bank on the Phoenix real estate market. Courage, confidence and competence are often found together in a solitary soul, but cowardice, cowering and impotence — these are the attributes of character of men who run in packs. I am […]
