I agree with you. I wouldn't want to decorate my home and fix it all up and then rent it to people. I see no reason why new homes will not be available in two years. Have y'all seen all those Conestoga Wagons?

Remember that ten thousand boomers are retiring every day and will for the next 19 years.
