For the city with the greatest estimate of the time it will take to clear its inventory of foreclosures and short sales, New York City, it will take 202 months, or nearly 17 years.

Odd as home prices in most of NYC are quite high, rents are quite high and the percentage of upside down owners is low. A rat race pyramid scheme house of cards local economy built on finance and locals unrelenting belief RE always rises much higher at the next cycle top
