we are just reverting to the mean !, page-46

very interesting that available stock has come on line. The only thing is that if you watch the movements there tends to be an increase in nov/Dec and thena fall back, but you are right that there has been trend upwards, but not the 2% to 4.2%. i see some 3% to 4%.

Slappi, one thing in property management is that if you get a good teneant try to keep them and this may mean sacrifacing $20-$30 week to keep them longer term. I know of one landlord who used the excuse of highr interest rates to increase rent by $30 only to piss the long term teneant off to buy. they have advertised at at even higher, and ecvery week unrented is roughly $10 a week in lost rent. some people get to greed especially real estate agents egging them on.
