Lereah is a paid shill of the NAR, not a true economist. He’s never made a “prediction” in his life that would be detrimental to the realtors’ commissions he’s paid to inflate, or his own book sales<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Surprisingly, after reading what you wrote, I now also hate Lereah. If an official Hate Lereah Organization (HLO) is ever formed, I sure hope you and I can at least be board members. It is totally understandable to hate all shills and any economist that isn’t “true”, especially if they work for NAR. Thank you for helping me to clear this up.<\/p>\n

Russell, perhaps you don’t remember the dot-com bubble of the late-90’s. Lereah is no different than the biased analysts that were promoting lame stocks by making rediculous assumptions. …. <\/em>Here’s my prediction… In 2007 over $1 trillion of ARMs reset and many people will be under water. Foreclosures will continue to increase, and this market will probably bottom sometime in 2008 or 2009. I expect to see significant price decreases of around 20% to 30% in the bubble cities like Phoenix, but more modest decreases in other cities. We will likely be in or near a recession in the second half of 2007.<\/em> <\/p>\n

And your prediction Mr. Shaw? Or are you just another blowhard shill without a clue?<\/em><\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I have already conceded the point that Lereah is just no damned good. Period. He is a bastard. But if I am also a shill – what is it that I am shilling? What is it that I seem to be “promoting”? I am leaving the blowhard and having a clue parts alone – as I can’t defend against Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
