Buyers Are “Waiting For Godot”?
In Malcolm Kaufman’s most recent “Pulse of the Market”, he makes an excellent comparison of the new buyer mentality as one that closely resembles a play he had seen in his early college days, “Waiting for Godot”, where the play “follows two consecutive days in the lives of a pair of men who divert themselves … Continue reading Buyers Are “Waiting For Godot”?

Dried herbs, or drying (pot) plants? It certainly can’t be helping the sale of 442 Detroit, but it might be helping the occupants cope with a declining market, or pending eviction.

San Francisco “needs to Harden the F*** up.”

It fits quite nicely. San Francisco, it’s time to “Harden the F*** up”. [Editor’s note: If you can’t get a … Continue reading San Francisco “needs to Harden the F*** up.”
