*potentially disturbing*
Phoenix Police have released bodycam video from a non-fatal OIS on March 8th involving a suspect who had called 9-1-1 to surrender himself to police and then began to attack the responding officer; resulting in shots being fired.

/BWC
“A police officer responding to the 911 call had found the man inside and went outside to speak with him.

‘During their interaction, the man started to violently and physically attack the officer.’”

/Surveillance Video
“The officer attempted to place the suspect in custody and the suspect forcefully turned around and kicked at the officer which caused the officer to lose control of this [stun gun],’ police said. ‘The suspect quickly got up and continued to violently attack the officer.’”

1 in 4 flippers sold their homes for LESS $$$ than expected in our 4Q22 survey. Elevated rates and falling home prices are scaring buyers wary of buying on the way down, but investors are clearly looking to acquire now and refinance later. 🧵Flipper comments to follow ->
#Austin flipper: “Austin has an overinflated housing market that is compounded by elevated interest rates. This has resulted in a downward spiral in qualified buyers. The fix and flip market is pretty much gone. Prices in most areas are down about -30% or more in recent months.”
#Baltimore flipper: “We’re looking forward to a big 2023. I hate to say it, but a lot of it’s going to be on the backs of consumers with hardships, or circumstances where they have no other options. But that’s our bread and butter.”

PJ O'Rourke once quipped that "The Republicans are the party that says government doesn't work and then they get elected and prove it." But conservative parties have unlikely allies in the project to discredit public service: neoliberal "centrist" parties, like @liberal_party. 1/ The legislative chamber of Canada's House of Commons; behind

Home builder construction costs finally cooling. Market commentary from our December survey of builders signals relief on the horizon...
#Dallas builder: “Hard costs continue to dip on average $3K-$5K per month. We are pushing back hard to lower our average labor and material costs. They must come down to reflect lower home selling prices.”
#Denver builder: “Almost all the home builders I am talking to are working on cost reductions. They range from -5% to -8% per plan.”

Home builder commentary from our survey this month was about as negative as I've seen to date. Here's some of the market color that jumped out...
#OklahomaCity builder: "Biggest challenge is your customers who just closed their home and see you drop prices by $30,000."
#Jacksonville builder: "Buying land at the top of the market and having to pull every incentive lever to sell is not a recipe for success. We'll cut starts ~60% to 70% in 2023."

Big takeaways from our survey of fix-and-flippers last week: 1) Rates have massively slowed transactions and prices are falling broadly. 2) Lots of talk about flippers changing strategies, holding-and-renting instead of flipping, or exiting the space entirely.

COMMENTARY 🧵->
#Atlanta flipper: “Many highly-leveraged flippers will need to go out of pocket to sell or will default on no-recourse loans. We will not see improvement until the 2nd half of 2024. Many will not make it to that point and there will be some bargains for cash-flush investors.”
#Baltimore flipper: “Sellers are still not reacting to market shifts. Sellers need to lower prices.”

“Housing is significantly affected by these higher rates.”
-Jay Powell today about the Fed’s impact on housing

Every month our team surveys 1,000+ agents across the US on what they're seeing in their local markets.

Short 🧵 on local housing markets from our monthly survey:
#Houston, TX: “Home prices have most first-time home buyers priced out of home ownership. It's even worse with the higher interest rates decreasing what the buyers can qualify for.”
#Denver, CO: “Cost of living [and] interest rate [increases] are keeping most buyers from buying.”

Weil viele aus der #NAFO, #StandWithUkraine und #FCKPTN-Bubble diesen Account gerade abzufeiern scheinen und ich der festen Überzeugung bin, dass es sich dabei um @haintz_markus handelt. Vielleicht liege ich falsch, aber Vorsicht is besser als hinterher dumm gucken. Ein 🧵 Image
Aufgefallen ist mir der Account @patriot_singles gestern, als #Haintz auf TG gepostet hat, er hätte einen Thread auf Twitter gestartet 🤔 Insgesamt verlinkt Haintz 4x auf diesen Account, der sich u.a. bei #Haintzlegal für seinen Einsatz bedankt. (1/8) ImageImage
Wenn man die Tweets von Vatnik Hunter auf "Haintz" oder "Lauterbach" durchsucht, finden sich so nette Aussagen, die noch gar nicht so lange her sind. Natürlich, nicht alle Impfgegner sind Putinfans, diese Aussagen stützen aber meine Theorie ☝🤓 (2/8) ImageImageImage

August home builder sentiment and sales/prices/starts survey results are in. Top themes: 1) Home price cuts along with other incentives are helping sales (for now). 2) Supply chain is healing as demand drops and builders quickly slow housing starts. Market commentary to follow…
#Austin builder: “A lot of spec inventory to work through. August was a very poor month for sales across the board. Cancellations spiked from July and buyers showed no sense of urgency.”
#Baltimore builder: “Jumbo loan rates below 5% are helping buyers move forward in that segment.”

June home builder sentiment and survey results are in. Top themes: 1) A lot more new home buyers cancelling. 2) Price cuts becoming fairly common. 3) Drop in demand finally cooling construction cost pressures (builder layoffs also happening). Market commentary to follow…
#Atlanta builder: “Someone turned out the lights on our sales in June!”
#Austin builder: “Sales have fallen off a cliff. We’re selling 1/3 of what we sold in March and April. Trades are more willing to negotiate pricing since market has adjusted significantly past 60 days.”

If this isn't newsworthy, we don't know what is. WHY WON'T THE #MSM WARN US that frequent #WetBulb & #HeatDome events will cause mass deaths in the #PXNW, #Phoenix, #NewOrleans, #Ozarks & poor nations in the #GlobalSouth. gizmodo.com/india-heatwave…

3rd part of @adaptivemobile series on the mobile battlefield of #Ukraine

@RowlandCorr and I cover what may happen in the future. In particular we look at the little-known Russian separatist Mobile Operators Phoenix (Фенікс) and Lugacom (Лугаком)

blog.adaptivemobile.com/the-mobile-net…
2/10
The unlicensed Phoenix (Фенікс) & Lugacom (Лугаком) opcos were formed from the separatist seizure of Ukrainian Mobile Operator equipment after 2014 invasion of the #Donbas

They have been growing as the licensed Ukrainian Operators have pulled out

3/10
Since the new 2022 invasion started, there have been reports of them expanding into newly occupied areas of #Luhansk & #Donetsk

Plotting these reports against current frontlines shows this seems plausible. Credit to @nrg8000 for making the frontlines shapefiles available

We @JBREC just surveyed 400+ flippers about #fixandflip conditions in partnership with Flatiron Realty Capital and @SundaeHQ.
Key takeaway: There is a TON of competition for deals right now.
MARKET COMMENTARY THREAD 🧵 ->
#LasVegas flipper: “Market is oversaturated with inexperienced investors due to an increase of “gurus.” Supply is low, demand is high, and prices are inflated 20%+ over ARV. Not sustainable.”
#Phoenix flipper: “Phoenix is a very active market with home prices on the rise. The competition is aggressive.”
