  3. instead of "reading" other people's opinions you need to look at comps.

    It's not that bad man...

  5. FUNDAMENTAL VALUE DESTRUCTION
    -----------------------

    Not quite sure what you mean. If the city takes a pro active measure on re-zoning, fundamental value can be created. Hence an improved ROI. Investment money is attracted, building continues, prices meet demand.

    I say sell your place to the foreigners with the high currency valuations to prop up those prices. Sell off parts of this country. It's a good way to bring those dollars back home that we send overseas and everyone keeps pissing and moaning about. And then when the dollars rebounds, and it is starting, and the prices start to fall, then double whammy :)

  7. fundamental value destruction.....see allan blinder princeton university for further definition

    also look at charted home prices adjusted for inflation 1890 to the present a 118 year chart

    you will note that we have spiked upward in the past 10 yrs ....thes has never happened before at this rate ever

    also transaction volume of closed real estate deals in nyc has declined by two thirds in the past yr....and price follows volume..see radarlogic.coms anylitical data and historical data ..witch goldman uses to trade residential real estate derivitves upon...specifically for nyc nyc msa rpx...or residential price index....and the smart money is short nyc

    to be continued g
