Hopefully.
I think we all agree that we a New Hope remake with a more inclusive and diverse cast is the best path forward for Star Wars.

Saying "houses appreciate" is lazy.
If this was directed at me, this isn't what I stated.
Anyone who owns a house of some sort knows that houses do not always appreciate. Your example post 2008 is a good point of housing collapses as is the past 2-3 years housing prices have been flat or declining.
The variables that affect home prices is super complex and can include among things you mentioned, Age and condition of home. Proximity to newer homes, desirability of that location / home but those are but pieces to the pricing puzzle and probably need their own thread.
I am simply pointed out your statement that houses don't appreciate / land does to be, let's say, not the general consensus. That isn't to say land doesn't or can't appreciate because it certainly can but generally, houses will appreciate over time given the right conditions if you didn't buy in a bubble.
Would a condo appreciate?
What about a townhome?
If it is the land that holds the primary value, why are mortgages on houses considerably easier to get than on vacant / unimproved land?
Depreciation is not the same as a concession or reduction for various items.
I don't think anyone would argue that Age/Condition/Wear doesn't matter.
It is routine for appraisers to knock off $ from the appraised price for items like wear and tear, condition, poor maintenance and % of life left on items like roof and HVAC.
But to say houses don't appreciate, they depreciate, that is a strange position to take.

Solid run the past month or so to end the year.
Over 800 OPS is amazing especially considering a few bad stretches he had.
He should win both the GG and SS awards this year and get some MVP votes.

Who are the competitors in this space?
With the possibility of the Save Act or states verifications becoming law for voting, this seems like an opportunity to play those regulations.

It is interesting the increasing crack spread pressure in the market.
There are several pretty large refineries that are currently shut down, several within the last 2 years that I imagine the cost to restart them would be worth it even in the medium term.

Not sure where you are but in C FL, we have had rain almost every day since the first week of June.
