Haha, I need to find a clever use of the malaprop ‘imminent domain’.
Maybe something to do with a URL?

Portland Is the New Pompeii, According to Forbes
It’s actually a flaming, apocalyptic disaster out there. At least, that’s how it’s depicted in Forbes, in an op-ed titled “Death of a City: The Portland Story?” In a throwback to last summer’s “everything is on fire all the time” rhetoric, author Bill Conerly insists the city is on the verge of...
Real Estate must be a weird game in Mormon country
Good price for 55 bedrooms...
Good price for 55 bedrooms...
Yeah. That would be $20,000,000 here, and would get bulldozed for a high rise.
Was trying to think how one pays for 55 or so kids. Then I realized it isn't so much when you get to sell the girls off.
Ah, just got an email from my real estate agent saying that yesterday, rates took their biggest jump in 10 years.
House we saw in Southern NH just sold for a full 20% over asking.
Shits off the rails right now. This does not bode well for my home buying prospects.

I've personally enjoyed it. 
Any idea what your welfare check looks like at that point?
Historically, as rates go up, prices go down, and vice versa. Say for example, the general market only allows for and average of $2500/m in mtge payments for the area (very broad example). If rates go down, that mean to get to that net cost, the size of the mtge can go up. Inversely, if rates go up, to get to that net cost, prices have to go down. That all goes to shit when cash purchases come into play, but that is how things should work according to basic economic theory.

Amazingly consistent, I'll give you that

Yeah - but is that in NZ pesos?That looks a bargain to the average kiwi.
for perspective I just put an offer on 5 acres of land (no house, no water/sewerage/power) and it's over half a mill.

Place in France is fine!
Can't get to it easily but that's just a temporary thing.
Just selling as I want to use the money for building at the new place.
I'll probably buy another place in France in a few years, it's just that I have a better use for the money right now.
How is the vacation home market in yurp right now?
From my monitoring of real estate websites around Morzine, over the last year the market seems to be good.
Properties seem to be selling quicker than when I purchased. Prices are pretty stable, not much change in value from 3 years ago.

Y'all buying vacation homes in Yurp and I can't even find a regular house to live in. The market has gotten even worse over the last year and continues to do so.
Their definition of 'good' is pricing your ass out of a functional housing situation so that they can feel like they made a good 'investment' with their extra money.
My system is pretty simply that when certain people post anything about markets being 'good', I know it really means 'bad for humanity'
is the process of defining who is a "certain people" simple as well? While I agree with you sorta, what would be a better system? People like moving around, and people like fucking things up, so I don't see a alternative. Not that the system is perfect. If it was cheap to live in great places they would cease to be great places.
I hope the market collapses soon. Because Im evil.
