SO FAR COVID 19 is in the neighborhood of a 2-3% rate and has infected under 200k that we know of and around 5k deaths...... infect 34 million with COVID 19 and do the math...Please let the people at the CDC and WHO handle the comparisons and set the concern level agenda..... when the experts in the field basically tell us all "get ready to get the sh*t kicked out of us" I believe them...... and THATS NOT MEDIA HYPE.....

Oregon Gov Kate Brown has called a special session this week to pass new legislature.One of the proposals is an extension of the rental moratorium, extended to December 1st.I couldn't find the exact wording as to how much longer(current July 7th) they are proposing the moratorium, Im getting the date from a investment real estate lobbyist group I belong to, I did see its on the agenda though.

that tells me rental have stabilized while prices came up in a faster pace.  

The tenants that have been displaced start yelling and some small percentage of politicians take up the tenants rights agenda.

The absolute WAVE of fed up Californians are moving in at a record pace as well as everyone else in the country.

A steady and smart pace of investing can bring you many benefits if your willing to work at it.Good Luck.

If you don't believe that last statement follow @pacej  (Pace Jordan Morby).   

I also want to keep my kids in the same school so I don't move around.GC is entertaining, but you have to remember he has an agenda. 

Schools are great, but rents haven't paced values, so you really gotta dig for good deals.

It's an erosion of our economy that overall wages have not kept pace with the cost of living, much less having extra room for retirement planning.
