November Home Sales due out from the NAR at 10am this morning. Consensus estimates are for a big drop in SAAR, down from the 5.29m annual pace in October to 5.13m. Estimates range from a dismal 5m to a 5.3m rate.

New tougher lending standards to kick in after Jan 1. Say buh Bye to the first time buyer.

Back in the late 70s and early 80s NYC was swept with a massive crime wave. White flight ensued and pay anything and live in a POS to get out of NYC. Ask your families if they remember.

Wow do a chart vs someone who bought a house March 9, 2009 vs a house on March 9, 2009 and watch home buyers run away
DEBLASIO might be good for the city. Remember, DEBLASIO’s wife was a lesbian, if he could turn that around and make her straight who knows what he is capable of doing.

Looks dismal range, 5.29m. Yun talking about low inventory when it is really greedy sellers listing well above fair market, believing a new bubble was here. Reality is here yet people clinging to unreal prices. This is going to get ugly. Inventory is up 50% Yoy in Fairfield. This is about Fema insurance costs and sky high “sellers”.
Bystander,
Do you have something to sell? Are you attempting to trade up? The reason I ask is because if I make a move, I have to sell; I’m not renting. I do have equity. Are you renting? The only conclusion I can come to is that I’m going to have to price my house much higher than I originally thought and just use it the money towards the trade. If that’s my only alternative, then I’m making someone else fund my move.
[3] “knockout game”
Yeah, I heard a brief mention of this on 1010 WINS this morning.
Also, thanks for the link the other day to Colin Flaherty’s collection of these (largely) unreported hate crimes. I picked up a copy of his book “White Girl Bleed A Lot” (which comes complete with QR codes linking to videos of these attacks) and while I’m only halfway through it, it’s been interesting (and troubling) reading.
This is not a game; it’s a racist hate crime. Don’t be caught off-guard.
[3] I like this exchange from the article:
—
At a community meeting between blacks and Jews in Crown Heights, an assistant police chief said there have been four such assaults since early October. Many present said young African-Americans need to be educated about such bias crimes.
“We need to engage these young people and engage their parents,” said the Rev. Taharka Robinson of the Brooklyn Anti-Violence Coalition.
Assemblyman Hikind said that’s fine, but he wants more. “I’m for people being arrested. That would be the best education in the world,” Hikind said.

The DiBlassio era starts Jan 1, 2014. That might just be what you’ll see.
Existing-home sales declined for the second consecutive month in October, while constrained inventory means home prices continue to see double-digit year-over-year gains, according to the National Association of Realtors®.
Total existing-home sales1, which are completed transactions that include single-family homes, townhomes, condominiums and co-ops, fell 3.2 percent to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 5.12 million in October from 5.29 million in September, but are 6.0 percent higher than the 4.83 million-unit level in October 2012. Sales have remained above year-ago levels for the past 28 months.
Lawrence Yun, NAR chief economist, said a flattening trend is expected. “The erosion in buying power is dampening home sales,” he said. “Moreover, low inventory is holding back sales while at the same time pushing up home prices in most of the country. More new home construction is needed to help relieve the inventory pressure and moderate price gains.”
Juice,
I’m no fan of Deblasio. But I want to point out a couple of things. 1) When’s the last time a politician did as he promised? 2) Regarding the drop in crime that NYC experienced since the 1980s, it is my understanding that violent crime dropped for the most part across the entire country… in areas that didn’t do things such as stop n fisk et al.

Crime usually goes up and down based on the economy. I hate when mayors and police chiefs point to the great job they are doing to reduce crime. Then when the economy falters, they like to point to budget cuts and reduction of staffing due to lost tax revenues for the increase in crime rates. Regardless, I look forward every other day to my game of Frogger in Penn Station dodging homeless and beggars. That one dude who plays the recorder near the southern most entrance to the red MTA line (mainly Popeye the Sailor Man), has been at it for as long as I can remember. And this goes back to 1993.
“On Aug. 25 at about 5:10 a.m., a woman aboard a train pulling into the Newport PATH Station complained to a man she said was sleeping and leaning against her and he pulled a gun on her before calming down, officials said.
When the woman’s brother became outraged, the gunman took the pistol out again, shot the woman in the ankle, shot another man in the hand, and shot himself in the leg by mistake, officials said.”
Awesome!
Cut the guy some slack. I’m not a very good shot when I first wake up in the morning either.
Fast,
I have absolutely nothing to sell. I rent for reasonable cost and get along great with my landlord. No rent increases in 3 years. She took care of elderly parent who passed on. She wants to move back west at some point. I am ideal buyer – cash, no home to sell, flexible yet there are no reasonable sellers with good product. Most want top dollar for busy streets and ikea updates. It is a joke. You saw some of them. The tide has turned back to buyer. There were 8 pre-FC listings just yesterday and
..and three significant declines this morning. It is starting to sink in. I will wait it out if needed. I say get what you can and low ball on other side.
(23) “it speaks to the stupidity of some troubled youth and their disregard for humanity”
Let me run that through the BS translator for you:
It speaks to the hatred that these racist black thugs have for anyone who does not look like them.
Happy,
There is plenty of black/black crime to speak of.
I’m with Joyce here. I don’t see it as a kill whitey issue. Basically, if you are in the right place at the wrong time, you are f’ed. Want to stop these kinds of crimes? Build more prisons and courts and put people away for real hard time. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen the same jerkwads end up in the Montclair police blotter.
Enforcement helps too.
Exactly. For violent crime (and high dollar white collar crime), put people away for decades. No more of this serve a fraction of your 15-20+ year sentence and commit similar crimes again five years later.
Bystander,
If your instincts are telling you not to do it, then don’t it. Forget about all the 1diots and sales people. The majority of the sellers are absolute m0rons. At this point, the only way for me to do it is to put a semi-stup1d price on my house and try to hook someone. I’ve seen way too many houses that you describe. Either f.ucked up locations and layouts or just a completely f.ucked up house.
Sure, there is plenty of black-on-black crime. The vast majority of it is either simple greed (e.g. robbery, muggings) or some gang-related vendetta thing (or innocent bystanders getting hit when bullets fly).
There are also plenty of black-on-white muggings, robberies etc. where it is clear that the purpose and motivation is banal greed.
These black racist hate crimes are nothing like those. Here, it’s just gangs of thugs purposely singling out non-blacks for violence and in all too many cases, death. No robbery, no mugging, no reason beyond pure hate. Women, children, old, young – doesn’t matter. All that matters is that they aren’t black,
[32] “Basically, if you are in the right place at the wrong time, you are f’ed.”
Almost right, but not complete.
Basically, if you are in the right place at the wrong time, and aren’t black, you are f’ed when the racist thug mob comes looking for someone to beat down.
I’m all with you guys on prisons and mandatory sentences, but there’s been a disturbing outbreak of hate crimes like this, and sticking your head in the sand and pretending it’s not happening is foolish.

34 Joyce,
More profit to be made on recycled criminals. You need more cops to rearrest and book the guy again. More fines to be collected, court ordered attorneys have more work to bill for. More paperwork to push. Rinse, recycle, repeat. Just think, if you could get everyone to NOT commit a crime, they would make “not committing a crime” to BE a crime just to keep the money flowing.
Happy Renter,
I still don’t know that whites are the target of these attacks. I would venture to say that many more brothers are killed in crossfire than honkies. Problem is, that it’s teenagers committing the crimes and they are always released to the same parent(s) that allowed them to get the way they are already. Lock these animals up, give them hard time, then see if they’ll do it again.
My brother got caught smoking herb in high school. When the cops called for my parents to pick him up, they said they would come by in the morning. They wanted to scare the krap out of him. For the most part, it worked.
Phoenix,

Fast,
I hear you. I don’t think any realtor so far would describe me as impulsive. More paralysis by analysis type. Still my instincts have been correct thus far. Homes that I made offers on are still sitting. The realtors told me I was too low. Time takes care of everything. These people either pull their homes or death by 1000 cuts. Problem is there are fools who you compete against. You should try to hook one.
Still searching. Sellers want top dollar for their crap shacks across the board.
Born n raised in the Philly hood. Renter is accurate. All others enjoy their
Personal north jersey security forces for which they pay astronomical taxes.
[42] “I still don’t know that whites are the target of these attacks.”
It’s not a white thing — it’s anyone who isn’t black. That includes whites, Asians (including Indians, etc.), and Latinos. From the reports I’m reading, it seems elderly and Asians are seen as particularly good targets.
Do you doubt that the vast majority of the victims of these mob assaults are non-black? Well, given that there is a massive under reporting of these crimes, and of the races of the attackers and the victims (and that’s sort of the point in all this) I doubt that you’ll find any official statistics. But you’re a smart guy and Google is your friend.
“I would venture to say that many more brothers are killed in crossfire than honkies.”
No doubt. If by “in the crossfire” you mean innocent bystanders caught up in the crossfire, that’s a factor of where the inter-gang violence is occurring (inner-cities, mainly), and what the racial makeup is of the people who live there and are therefore at an increased risk of being caught up in the crossfire. They’re not targets, they’re just bystanders to inter-gang violence. A white person is just as likely to get hit by a stray bullet when he’s in those areas. And when those folks leave those gang-infested areas, they are just as safe as anyone else. Bottom line is that everyone who finds themselves located in those high-crime areas is at the same risk of being hit by a stray bullet, and can use their judgment accordingly.
But these hate crimes are different. And it’s not just an academic debate. It’s important to know these hate crimes are happening, where they are happening, and with what frequency. Because the normal “crime awareness” that we all walk around with needs to take this stuff into account.
Say, you’re walking down the street and see a group of 8 teenage black males at the other end of the block. OK, looks like they’re just hanging out, walking slowly or whatever, don’t seem to be causing any problems. Black guy walking down the street ahead of you wearing nice clothes and carrying a Century 21 shopping bag passes by them with no problem. Elderly black woman walking in the opposite direction carrying a pocketbook passes them and they ignore her. Another young black guy walking ahead of you passes them by without a word or a second glance.
Anyone who, like me, grew up in a racially mixed neighborhood and harbors no prejudice toward people based on how they look (key point: how they LOOK. That’s very different from basing decisions on how they ACT) would tend to think that these guys, at least here and now, aren’t causing trouble. So unless you’re walking down the street with gold chains hanging on your neck or carrying a lot of cash or something else that would make you a particularly attractive robbery target, you think you’ll just walk on by just like everyone else, aware, but not paranoid and not going out of your way to avoid them just because they look different than you.
Ah, but you’re not like everyone else. You’re white (or Asian, etc.). And for that, you’re going to be attacked, possibly killed, by these thugs. That’s the difference. That’s what sets you apart. That’s their motivation. That’s what makes you a target.
Learning about the outbreak of these hate crimes is certainly going to factor into my crime awareness now, in a sad way. But the cover up about what’s really going on is doing everyone (at least, every non-black who might find themselves a victim of this) a major disservice.
“Lock these animals up, give them hard time, then see if they’ll do it again.”
Well, on that we do agree.

Only Nouveau we’ll recommend is Jean-Paul Brun’s: ambient yeast fermentation, no “tricks” used to make things go faster, no fining, no filtration. Brun will actually not ship his Nouveau if it’s not ready and drinkable in time (this year will not be a problem).
Best of all, Brun’s Nouveau is no more expensive than most of the chemical swill stacked to the ceiling in the big box stores.

Speaking of yeast, fermentation parameters, and hangovers (they are all very closely related) – I now know more about yeast than I’d ever had cared to in the past. My entire basement refrigerator is now filled with various yeast cultures, slants, starters, etc. My office now looks like something out of Breaking Bad, my 5 liter Erlenmeyer flask and stir plate would make Walter Sr. proud. Hell, my microbiology professor might actually shed a tear. If only I knew then that good booze was all about the yeast, I’d probably have paid much more attention.

Although DeBlasio is a scumbag, I believe the proliferation of cheap and ubiquitous video surveillance has caused the representation of criminals in public to seriously drop. Simply, repeat offenders are taken off the street due to the sheer enormity of their rap sheets. You may get a slap on the wrist, but with video evidence and many more arrests, it becomes harder to question anything other than clearly predictable recidivism.

Shoppers are buying more at J.C. Penney Co., but they are also stealing more.
The retailer said Wednesday that theft spiked in the third quarter after it removed sensor security tags from merchandise while it shifted to a new inventory-tracking system that uses radio tags.
Shoplifting took a full percentage point off the department store chain’s profit margins during the quarter, Chief Executive Myron Ullman said. That was just one more weight that dragged the 1,100-store chain down to a loss of nearly half a billion dollars even as it showed some traction in getting its long disaffected customers to spend again.

The ACA stuff starts on page 15 (slide 25 of 82 in the Acrobat file). To give you a frame of reference, on page 24 (slide 34) there is a ‘Medicaid and the Exchange’ slide that references the “138%”. Well that reference amounts to an assumption, because in some places in the ACA it reflects 133%, and others 138%, but it wasn’t proofed before being passed by Congress and signed into law, so it is not consistent in the document.
