NEW HOME SALES OF 23,000 IN THE WHOLE FREAKING COUNTRY – IT’S A RECOVERY!!!!! | |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 30818930  United States01/26/2013 01:51 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | New Home sales fell by 7.7% in December. They were predicted to go up. We’ve got the lowest mortgage rates in the history of mankind and the entire freaking country of 115 million households has only 23,000 new homes sold in December???? Even better, only 10,000 of these homes are actually completed. The rest are either under construction or not even started. Still, the guy at Calculated Risk and the rest of the MSM try to sell you on some sort of housing recovery. Does he even look at his own charts? Can anyone show me a housing recovery in that chart? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 32962219 You have a completely valid argument. I agree with your point of view 100%. Why are they pumping up the market when the housing industry is anything but in recovery?? |

Dr. Lecter  User ID: 24275310 United States01/26/2013 02:17 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Link please? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 6814516 Because I'm not sure where you are getting your numbers but I just checked at ForexFactory.com and the new home sales for December was 369,000 And home sales for the month prior (November) was 398,000. Where are you seeing new home sales of only 23,000? Never mind, I caught my own error. 369,000 is the annualized number. Still, though, in 2006 the total number of new homes sold that year was 542,000. So yes new homes sales are down from "the better days" pre-great-recession but I don't see the current numbers as doom numbers at all. From 542000 down to 23000 and you see no problem? That is only -96%... and you see no problem? i've been saying that for years... they won't use the word depression... it would depress people... just like they refuse to use "terrorist attack" either. because the truth means they are not winning. "Moral of the story is I chose a half measure when I should have gone all the way. I'll never make that mistake again. ==== ESTJ-a (Executive) 93% Extroverted, 82% Observant, 83% Thinking, 82% Judging,72% Assertive ==== |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 961432 United States01/26/2013 03:59 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What about all the vacant houses? No one wants them? Not to mention the vacant commercial properties. Before the crash of 2008 office complexes were being erected absolutely everywhere here and they still stand empty. Recovery my arse. Quoting: black calx Andre Barbosa's days of stylish squatting in a $2.5-million Boca Raton mansion may be numbered. A filing in Palm Beach County court made public Friday names the 23-year-old Brazilian national and eight other unknown people as defendants for their attempt to stake a claim on the waterside property at 580 Golden Harbour Drive. Bank of America is claiming rightful ownership of the home — despite Barbosa's invocation of an obscure Florida real estate law to stake his claim on the foreclosed property, a 7,522-square-foot, 5-bedroom palace that features canal views and whose interior includes pillars, a curved staircase and marbled bath.

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 32962219 The reason is simple Banks are puting so much restrictions to make loans people are buying houses in cash fucking the banks in the event... There is now a bank withdrawal run worst that in 911 , as people know argentina case , they are moving their bank cash into solid tangible assets , metals , property , guns & ammo , food & survival resources .... If the houses are sold CASH they dont go into sales statistics done by the banks .... People are buying CASH & avoiding shit sucking loans !  |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 32962219 This is just a scam going on right now. Yes, they're actually constructing new homes and commercial buildings. No, no one is buying them. They're reselling the buildings to their own sister companies to create an illusion of a sale. Why are they doing it? I've been trying to figure out the economics of it myself and far as I can tell, it's either a tax write off, some sort of investment scam or some other government sponsored bullshit to keep numbers up. Meanwhile, I can go drive around a neighborhood or an industrial/commercial area and see the countless empty homes and buildings. It's to keep houses at five to seven times gross when they should be three times gross. Why? Who knows? Buying a house for four times gross salary is kind of a hardship. |

All I can think is YOU DuMBASS... Now when shit crashes they can take both your homes because the tenant can pay anymore and you can barely afford the mortgage for one house.

So a 50% drop is something to cheer about. You know, 4 years ago people would have shit themselves over a 50% drop... now, this chucklefuck thinks we should cheer about it. Man, it's true, people grow dumber everyday. No wonder they buy the chatter from their tv's and radio everyday. Too stupid to see the irony in it. |

They finance realestate so it's on their balance sheets as assets or reserves. |
