Liars. My daughter is a realtor. People are offering up to $100,000 ABOVE the already inflated asking prices for homes, in order to have their bids accepted. Just about everything at the grocery store has gone up 25 - 100%. The problem is, they not only think we’re too stupid to notice, they don’t care, because the media will lie, lie, lie for them, and our constitutional right to seek relief from their behaviors, is prosecuted as insurrection. Fascists.
Speaking of Real Estate:
Last fall there was a HUGE land sale in our neck of the woods. Hundreds and hundreds of acres; all good farm land and pasture land. If you want to build a home around here, you need 40 acres, minimum.
Some parcels were going for $8K an acre, which has been unheard of up until now.
Our property has pretty much doubled in value over the past few years, though few would be able to afford it. Amazingly, taxes haven’t gone up. Yet. Ugh!
