You certainly do make the money when you buy them, I hate selling, and have regretted every one I ever sold, yet I keep doing it. But before the bulls sink the slipper into me over that comment, don't forget even the worst punters one day back a winner.
The unemployment figures today paints a picture on why I don't think things are quite right with the economy. Unemployment is up but not much to worry about, but check out the continuing changes in employment from full time to part time and the participation rates. Lower incomes is the result, and with that, the unaffordability of housing only increases.
Perhaps this is the way of the future and that the gaps between the have's and have not's will only widen, or, even if they go to ZIRP that the first homers will still be in their rented shells refusing to come out.
