We are back in the Big Apple for episode #68 of Boroughs & Burbs to talk with the leading appraiser in the nation, Jonathan Miller.
We had Jonathan on episode 32 "The Pricing Show" when Jonathan was joined by Dr. Rob Docters of Yale. And, we had Jonathan on again in last spring, episode 50 where we asked "Can Housing Keep Rising?" Nine months have passed since we made some of those dire predictions. Six months have passed since Jamie Dimon warned that we were heading for an Economic Hurricane. (Well, Jamie was right to be pessimistic about crypto.)
So, this week on the show we will explore the economy generally and their impact on housing in New York and Connecticut, particularly the relationship between inventory, prices and slowing homes sales.
