So our landlords' poor perception of the program is well founded, IMO.

If it is more than your budget I understand....if you think you can get a better deal down the street great, but it is not over priced based on the market.....probably underpriced based on the interest.Everyone has a different perception of value....and you have to be comfortable with what you pay/buy.   

This is exactly what Airbnb’s game is: Lowering the perception of price by ensuring hosts absorb the cost of their failures in NYC and a softening overall market.

In my experience the prices in Oaklyn and Woodlynne are cheaper just because there is an arrogance/pride in Collingswood that causes them to look at lower-income people in those areas with a little bit of disdain.The great thing about Oaklyn and Woodlynne is that there is a higher population of renters (in my perception), and a lot of good people from Camden and Pennsauken looking to upgrade to the Collingswood school district without paying Collingswood rents/home prices.

Perception matters in business. 

It all comes down to perceptions of risk.

But, we also know that perceptions are often rooted in old thinking, often times not linked to reality; we wanted to see for ourselves, we were willing to give Lowell a chance!

Of course, a ubi shouldn't replace work for money with all its individual and societal benefits.

I think its bad juju to have the perception of hoping for a recession.

I always like to keep in touch with perceptions that people outside of the state have of us and the RE market.
