., just posted this article, it's a good read on where our residential housing market is and what you are touching on:http://charleshughsmith.blogspot.com/2014/01/after-seven-lean-years-part-1-us.htmlI would keep in mind when buying real estate your purchase is a potential "hedge" against the risks you're talking about.This is what I mean by a hedge: When inflation occurs, products cost more because the currency is not worth as much.

Not knocking that stuff, I went the guru route for my education, but just know those sales are where the REIA makes its money.Sounds like yours was more of a full time pitch than a normal REIA, but as far as I know, they are all in the educational product business.

Um, I dunno, like I said his podcasts don't seem guru-ie, although he does sell educational products which does seem guru-ie.

The house was boarded up and actually had grow lights in two bedrooms (I'm sure that was for the production of ficus tree's...couldn't have been anything illegal :) ).
