In a handful of markets which is why the data you are hanging your argument is junk.

Thanks for telling us about your area. It is completely irrelevant to the conversation and doesn't change a thing about the overall data.


My area, Birmingham, Memphis, Philadelpia, and everywhere else I've lived and worked. Your problem is you only have your data and zero context to go with it. I can read the same data and also apply personal experience of having worked on homes and residential remodels in those areas. Someday when you really grow up and stop being the usual idiotic Google-has-all-my-answers millennial you'll understand why just citing data you had no hand in compiling and no real experience to interpret in depth is never going to make an intelligent argument.

Which markets do you think this data is derived from?

I mean no context is better than an assertion that no one in Philadelphia is tearing down 1950's houses.

You just argued that people aren't tearing down 1950s homes. I can drive down the street and watch people tear down 1950s homes. I don't need google to enlighten me that you are rejecting reality.

This is all the proof we need that you're fricking clueless.

This might be my favorite post in this thread.

When faced with objective data that refutes your point, you seamlessly transitioned to the "real world experience" argument. Bravo, you've done your generation proud.
