Just observing what's around you.

Not trying to step on your toes, just my observation.

The video hasn't stopped the conspiracy theories, though, as you can see from the comments:http://www.zerohedge.com/news/some-observations-bob-pisanis-visit-glds-vault

There is some amusement by observing other people cringing as they bid upward (likely due to nearing their bid limits, and feeling pain as they have to get out of the comfort zone).

Chris,I think your observations are right in line with mine here in Indiana.I was just having this conversation Saturday with a new couple out our local REI meeting.One quick example: I put an offer in on a short sale SFH that was for sale at 43.9K.

(This is a valuable thing, though, considering how many people have difficulty with financial discipline.)Kevin Yeats, your observation about the higher transaction costs of homes compared to stocks is valid.

[If you don't need my humble observation on not showing for small claims cases, ignore that part.

[CR Edit: the article said "square foot", but this is clearly monthly rent] "Never before have we observed rental properties in so much distress, both on the space and pricing side," Calanog said. ...Note: the Reis numbers are for cities.

Not an attack, but an observation based on my own experiences and the old adage that you can't tell a book by its cover.

I sometimes walk around a property and simply speak all my observations and notes to myself for later retrieval. 9.
