Early warning signs?

[Pat Coogan]

Over the weekend I was working on my family's home and saw something that made me pause in the middle of pulling weeds. Saw a young guy walking around the neighborhood with a clipboard, looking at the homes and making notes. Screamed investor type. Last time I saw that was right before the market imploded, 2007-8. Family home is in a class C-D neighborhood. We've always gotten our fair share of flyers and postcards, but the volume has really been picking up. 

Anyone else see echoes from the past? Curious.

Could also be a code enforcement officer or could be county appraisal time.
