its not as bad as this article makes it sound. Houses are cheap, but when I was shopping and friends of mine were shopping it was actually hard to find a house. I would find a nice one and it already had 5 offers on it. All the empty homes are from people leaving right when they quit paying and the bank taking over a year to even enter the property let alone sell it. The gutted and beat up houses are being bought up by investors for cash at lightning speed. They fix them up and rent them out to people who just foreclosed on another house which is great, they will seriously buy a 3 bed 2 bath house where the kitchen has been gutted for liek $40k and I mean a nice house, then they rent the house out after fixing it up for like $1200/mo. the funny thing is a lot of them fix up the houses by buying stuff off craigslist from people gutting their house when it foreclosed. Basically the banks get fucked but its alright for everyone else. I don't know anyone who lost their house due to hardship, it was all just a matter of value... people bailed out on houses they couldn't afford when they bought them as they had no hope of making any equity.
BTW Clyde, the house next to MFDB is for sale for like $50k, I think.
