If layoffs start and people begin to stream out of the Permian, then look for some great opportunities to scoop properties up at a discount.I think the US and even beyond will have an "Oh crap" moment in the next 12-24 months on oil.  

I could see a lot of cars being repo by a tiny economic hickup causing a flood if cheap slightly used cars which in turn forces layoffs in the auto industry which dominos into other businesses.  

I have spoken to a few people who have moved here from Calgary and its the same story, job opportunities are scarce, layoffs are consistent and the outlook will only get better if oil prices rise again.

Would layoff notices be a good source of leads foe wholesaling?

The little town I live in has maybe 3,000 to 3,500 people in it and I am aware of about 30 layoffs in the last 60 days. 

i actually did skip the whole second page but i saw a few people talking about oil prices stabilizing around 100$ a barrel........Now that 2015 is more than 25% over and prices are still far from 100$ a barrel and i recently heard something about 100,000 layoffs in the oil industry in texas although i am not sure which part of texasanyone getting worried????

Today my realtor called..the buyer wants to back out for fear of possible layoffs at work.

I really wish I could have told me 10 years ago to lay off the bigger than I needed personal residence and toys

If you figure it out, please let me know well before it happens.Although if they add in higher taxes (for the so called rich), increased inflation (everyone enjoys this), and more corporate layoffs (inevitable when they raise taxes) we could see more serious problems in the not so distant future.But hey, more people will qualify for public housing, food stamps, "free" health care, etc...
