The Bubble Meter Philosophy
The best way to get the housing market thriving again is to drop prices to the point where supply equals demand. Home sellers might not like it, but it's good for buyers and it's great for Realtors.
For Realtors, the best way to make more money is to sell houses quickly, and the best way to sell houses quickly is to convince the seller to drop the price.

ReplyDeleteHave a great trip.
ReplyDeleteEric
thanks. :-)
ReplyDeleteDavid, glad to know you're from the Windy City too. I moved to D.C. metro last year from Chicago -- in my heart it is still the best city around the whole world. Speaking of bubble, I know for sure that the loop and North Side are bubblicious areas, not sure about south side though. Enjoy your trip!
ReplyDeleteDespite, the cold rainy weather here in Chitown tonight it feels good to be back. Definitely, the best downtown in the USA. Chicago Rocks!
