"Housing inventory is down here in Houston, maybe all over except for garden spots like Detroit, but talking up unemployment numbers without nodding at how many people have left the labor force seems kinda pointless, longprime. Dishonest, even."
We have left the workforce, eligible for SS and taking care of parents. Appears that banks are accepting bids equal to or less than rental/apartment housing. Very attractive newer foreclosed housing just a dune away from the ocean. Slightly higher for view property, but not that much more.
