The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.

That’s true.

However, the Realtors have forgotten that “better schools” is NOT the equivalent of “big new buildings.”

Worse, as taxes increase, property values will decrease (home purchase prices are a function of cash-flow.)

So the Realtors are peddling half-truth, and are not really concerned about maximizing property values any more.

‘Tis a puzzlement…
