The housing market crash is absolutely 💯 going to happen. Many housing market forecast experts are forecasting a huge housing market correction larger than the 2008 financial crisis. Mortgage rrates remains 30 year highs, inflation numbers are skyrocketing through the roof, coat of living are beyond manageable, wages are not keeping up with inflation, and many people with families are having a difficult time to afford supporting the cost of living. You need to make $120,000 to be able to afford a modest house

MemberJuly 10, 2024 at 6:31 pm in reply to: Democrat Doctor Says Joe Biden has Parkinson DiseaseI am not able to diagnose medical conditions or discuss people’s health, including President Biden. The correct person to do that is a licensed doctor who has examined the patient because it ensures that they give an accurate diagnosis. What I can do however is tell you what some of the most common signs and symptoms of Parkinson’s disease are:
Signs and symptoms often seen in people with Parkinson’s disease include:
Tremor – usually beginning in a hand or finger
Slowed movement (bradykinesia)
Muscle stiffness
Poor balance and posture
Loss of unconscious movements (e.g., blinking or swinging arms while walking)
Changes in speech (speaking softly, quickly, or in a monotone)
Writing changes (small, cramped handwriting)
It should be noted that:
Symptoms vary widely from one person to another.
Many of these symptoms can be caused by other conditions or normal aging.
A thorough medical assessment is required for an accurate diagnosis.
Regarding President Biden’s health; this information is publicly available through official White House physician statements. To get the most up-to-date and accurate information about his current state of health consult those reports or listen to his doctors speak out on it.
If you have concerns about your own health or someone else’s then I would recommend seeing a doctor face-to-face as they will be able to provide advice based on their professional knowledge. All the signs of parkinson disease listed above seems like Joe Biden is displaying every single point. Can we take a chance in having the Commander in Chief have parkinson disease? This is a danger to the country and to every single citizen of the United States.

Chicago is one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Cities such as Chicago can be a bit of a paradox for people – on one hand they’re beautiful and full of culture, while on the other hand many folks have real problems with the way things are run locally. Here’s what I mean:
Good things about Chicago:
Gorgeous buildings—especially downtown
Lakefront parks that stretch for miles
Neighborhoods where you can see different cultures living together side by side
Art museums that rival any in the world, plus theaters and music venues galore
Best food anywhere—don’t forget to try deep dish pizza and hot dogs Chicago-style!
Bad things about Chicago’s politics:
Corruption is a major concern—it seems like there have always been accusations flying around about this or that official taking bribes or misusing funds
Crime rates continue to be high despite efforts to bring them down; some say it’s because there aren’t enough cops on the beat, others think it has more to do with poverty and inequality
The city is broke: pension debt alone is over $100 billion—and that doesn’t even include all the unpaid bills from vendors who’ve been waiting months (or years) to get paid themselves!
There are also serious problems with infrastructure maintenance across both the public transit system & roads/bridges/tunnels/etc., not just within city limits but throughout Cook County too; meanwhile many neighborhoods lack basic public services like garbage pickup or street sweeping, let alone reliable utilities such as electricity & water mains.
Finally critics charge incompetence dealing with a wide range of urban issues; anything from affordable housing initiatives gone wrong because developers didn’t follow through properly during construction stage, through low quality schools failing students due neglectful administration’s oversight during implementation phase up till environmental policy decisions based more upon political convenience than scientific truthfulness.
It should be noted however that there’s no shortage of opinions when it comes to these two areas – how beautiful our cities are and how bad we think our leaders might be. For many people, Chicago is an amazing place architecturally speaking. There are so many different types of buildings in this city that it’s like walking through a living museum sometimes! We also have such great cultural events here too – everything from jazz festivals to street fairs celebrating specific ethnic groups’ contributions throughout history against all odds; there really isn’t anything else quite like it anywhere else on earth. But even though these things are obvious about the Windy City, what’s equally clear is how often its political leadership has been unable (or maybe just unwilling) to overcome some pretty serious obstacles.
To get a more complete picture of what’s happening in any given town or city at any one time, you should always consult objective measures such as management effectiveness ratings compiled by independent watchdog organizations along with livability indicators drawn up using data provided by multiple sources across various sectors over several years’ worth of study backed up with demographic comparisons between different metropolitan statistical areas (MSAs) nationwide whenever possible since each big urban center faces unique challenges based partly upon location alone but also due partly because no two cities are exactly alike when viewed through lens X or Y etcetera et cetera ad infinitum ad nauseam

MemberJuly 9, 2024 at 12:19 am in reply to: Interesting info of Foreclosures in the Month of July 2023In July 2023, foreclosure activity in the U.S. displayed some interesting trends and shifts. Foreclosure started to decrease 9% in July from the previous month but remained up for the first half of the year over 2022.
For the first six months of this year, 185,580 properties filed for foreclosure nationwide—a 13% increase from last year and a whopping 185% leap from two years ago, when COVID-19-related restrictions were still in place. This shows that foreclosures are returning to pre-pandemic levels. The states with the highest rates of foreclosure starts for this time frame were Illinois, New Jersey, and Maryland. In Illinois, one in every 397 housing units had a foreclosure filing during the first half of 2023. California and Florida had more total foreclosure filings than any other state, with 17,914 and 18,530, respectively.
Among metro areas with at least 200,000 people, those with the worst rates of foreclosure starts for this time frame were Cleveland; Atlantic City; Fayetteville, North Carolina; Rockford, Illinois; Jacksonville; Peoria, Illinois; Indianapolis; Memphis; Dayton, Ohio; and Toledo (ATTOM) (HousingWire). The average time to complete a foreclosure hit an all-time high in Q2 2023: 1,212 days nationwide. These figures underscore the lingering economic woes wrought by COVID-19 across various states and the uneven recovery patterns within local housing markets still grappling with foreclosed properties.

While some Democrats have expressed concerns about President Biden’s candidacy, it is important to avoid making sweeping statements. Here’s a less black-and-white take: Some Democrats worry that Biden is too old and unelectable; others still support him.
Party leadership: Most top Democratic officials and party leaders are behind Biden’s reelection campaign.
No primary challengers: No major Democratic figures have launched primary challenges against Biden despite some calls for alternatives.
Polling data: There are various levels of enthusiasm among Democratic voters when it comes to supporting Joe Biden as their candidate for president, according to polls.
Policy achievements: For many Democrats, Joe Biden’s record in Congress represents significant legislative victories that justify continued backing.
Electoral considerations: The discussions about Biden within the party could affect his chances in a general election; this worries some members of the organizations. Media coverage: Depending on where one gets their news, one might believe that there is widespread discontent among Democrats or hardly any at all. To get the fullest possible understanding, we would advise looking into several different polls and reviewing statements by different democratic leaders and voters; also, non-partisan political observers may have interesting insights. The situation is fluid, and people’s opinions vary greatly depending on where they live, how old they are, or what kind of politics they follow.
