For better of worse real estate is a handmaiden of politics and tax policy. Ronald Reagan sized deficits and the resulting inflation will be one of the few things that could rescue real estate prices from collapse.

Sorry, MD, no offense intended this thread has been an excellent resource on real estate and intersecting economic issues... Agreed. I hope I occasionally provide something "intersecting". If not, I'm not devoted to stirring up irrelevencies (and generally spend too much time online anyway !) do you think you can keep the partisan politics on the political threads where it belongs? No offense, but per my ravings, since 40% of our GDP is being man-handled by gov't, it's difficult to separate daily politics from economic consequences, especially in real estate, especially with the wild and wooly policy-mangling going on now. If you own real estate, or want to, the issues spoken about this Friday may concern you. If it's any help -- it's not so "partisan", I'm an equal-party rabble-rouser -- I think excessive gov't is creating dangerous conditions, and both parties deserve exposure. FWIW
