Say it ain't so!

July 5th, 2009
Hi,   I have railed against the media reporting on the real estate market before.  And I have another beef.  I just read an article on Yahoo.com, that was from smartmoney.com.  Unfortunately, I don't think it was so smart.  The article was about the top 5 cities to stay away from regarding home purchasing.  You guessed it, Phoenix was in there.  The problem I have with the article was it's ...
