Sorry to be so long away from you. I guess the lazy days of summer have been calling. I would like to share an article that I read recently in the New York Times.
http://www.nytimes.com/2011/07/27/business/affluent-buyers-reviving-market-for-miami-homes.html?pagewanted=1&_r=1
It seems that the Miami market, one of the worst hit during the real estate turn down, is on the mend, and that is attributed to investment buyers who have stepped in and said with their dollars: This market has gone about as low as it is going to go. There are opportunities here. We are ready to buy and hold and make our money down the line.
This has provided the much needed buffer, almost like say those who speculate in commodities markets, to balance out the market and absorb the gap that would otherwise exist between supply and demand.
I’m curious: how many of you think this could be a trend for the entire nation? Is this the way that it will all get turned around, and is this the beginning of that turn around? Please comment.
