I don't believe there was any offense intended and some Hack writer trying to drum up readership doesn't surprise me.

People owning for 1-2 years will sometimes come out ahead, sometimes come out behind, and either way are mostly just doing a really good job of drumming up & paying lender fees, title fees, appraisal fees, and real estate commissions relative to the alternative where they just rent for a year.That story you tell yourself as an owner occupant about the $10k kitchen upgrade improving the value of your home by $10k... is rarely a true story (contractor doing the work may tell you otherwise).

If your agent is good then he/she should be able to drum up interest before the listing without actually showing anyone the unfinished product.

@Ryan Moyer has it correct @Eric Drum.

This was drummed home to me when (for a short period of time) I was a starting commodities trader with UBS.

I’m a drummer by profession so maybe this is like asking me for free drum lessons?

What's not being considered on the elimination of SALT deductions is that Conservatives for years have been beating the drum about relying more on your state and local governments to provide services instead of asking the federal government to do it.
