this makes perfect sense when you realize that "homes sold" is not the same set as "homes". The richest are the most able to escape the cities, and so the houses that are being sold right now disproportionately reflect the sorts of houses upper middle class people would buy https://twitter.com/BullandBaird/status/1292571405649879045 …

“Alternate”? There’s a left hypothesis and a right hypothesis, that’s everything.

Maybe if you disaggregate the data around you that doesn't hold anymore

Trying now. It's not going so hot. Mom was in Palo Alto in the 60s, Dad was in Detroit. One gets it, one doesn't.

Was ESPECIALLY suspicious that it didn't list any QUANTITY of homes sold, so went poking. https://news.remax.com/press-release/remax-national-housing-report-for-june-2020 … Some indication that home sales overall are down.
-
>Of the 53 metro areas surveyed in June 2020, the overall average number of home sales is up 37% compared to May 2020, and down 6.9% compared to June 2019. So decline compared to last year, and noting that May saw MASSIVE decline in closings, possible July was also low.
