Bill Looks at Yakima. Yakima????

I just read about 10 cities in the U.S. that have faired considerably better than the rest of the nation. My friend Dave in Yakima is smiling right now (see Dave’s reaction at www.3rdActs.com). Notice that most of the markets are smaller, and home values are quite modest compared to prices in larger, more metropolitan markets

La’Cee Looks Optimistic. Sort of.

Wells Fargo Securities recently sent out a chart that showed starts rose 14.6 percent to a 629,000-unit place in June. While this is welcomed good news, it’s a bit more realistic to look at a 10-year continuum (see below), and wonder where all the volume went.
