Isn't "honest salesman" oxymoron in any field?

...license since 1986... I'm sure you were asked here before if you held a license but your business is your business. And I'm wrong a reasonable percentage of the time. I didn't read into and come to the same conclusions you have concerning Tradelite. In his post I recall Tradelite used the the largest word in the English language "if". Which in it's use gives the user leeway to deviate from ones point. Reasonable in use to allow diverse discussion and differing points in ones expression of opinion. I agree real estate is given great tax advantages. The exact reason I purchased my first rental. The point that these programs promote or inhibit affordability is open to discussion. For certain peoples economics such as myself I have benefited from such programs and feel it was prudent business that lead me down that trail. Lastly I feel it's local and regional zoning that has caused a gap in affordability/high costs in California. It's plain that not enough units have been build to keep up with demand. More times than not the 'haves' protected their holdings buy politicizing zoning leading to a greater short fall in needed units. This trend will continue in my opinion because the dream is a detached home with garden. Is and will be the prominent desire for the majority of 'us' the buying public.
