Housing Rolling Along 2

Quote from SteveD:

....

People will move to where the jobs are but only if they can afford to live somewhere close by.

SteveD

exactly the problem in california .... it takes an annual household inome of about 300K to live comfortably anywhere along the coasts and hence, any business with a non-executive employee base is needing to locate inland - inland empire. ....Better locations and environments can be had out of state .....
 
When CNBC's Ron Insana asked if both owned/rented homes and whether they would sell, Shiller owns two along with REITS and Lereah said he was invested and wouldn't sell.

Shiller is the guy all the bears were citing about the real estate market being out of wack. The guru of the bears is long two houses and reits.

That makes me laugh.
 
Existing home sales dip to 7.16 million
Sales rate still robust at third highest ever


"We see a rolling boom moving from one metro area to another over time, as well as a spillover effect into nearby areas with lower home prices," Lereah said. "This is spreading the wealth of housing returns."

This is what David A. Lereah was talking about when he was on CNBC with Robert Shiller. I wonder why Mr. Shiller isn't a seller of at least one his homes if he sees a bubble?

Maybe because he's stupid loaded and couldn't care less if his homes lose 20% of their value because that would barely affect his lifestyle.

Just a guess. :)
