Good find on the reality check article… It’s amazing how much financial risk people are willing to take on.
I think Flaherty’s going to eventually shift to 10%/30yr anyways in preparation for future rate increases…
Larry:
Your Dad and I got together this evening to chat. We have concluded that the market has started to crash. Listings are surging.
We love you and want you to take care of yourself – don’t get overextended on real estate, there is a bad case of constipation that is building up. I will mail you some Malox.
Mom, Always….
Oh now Mom,
Have you been taking your ‘pep’ pills? You know they always have a reverse reaction in how you see things.

Listings are surging. What is today’s listing vs. sales count up to?
thanks.
Your DNA 50% contributor.
Listings are naturally outpacing sales but the rate that they are doing so is going to set the MOI watchers and bears on fire. We’re on pace for over 1100 new listings in the first week of the year, a new record, I believe.

Larry, see my lad. Sellers are getting anxious. Much like animals can sense a storm, the heathens are massing at the gate.
Just wait until they hear someone yell…”fire”…you know what happens next.
Its because I care for you that I offer you this warning.
What are your thoughts?
