Take Zillow listings with a grain of salt, or a salt shaker
Zillow has built a business by pretending to be a service for buyers but, in reality, makes its money by selling the buyer's data to subscribers. There is a saying in high technology industries that "if you are not the customer, you are the product." In this case, not only does Zillow sell its readers data as its primary business, but its data is very often inaccurate. How do they get away with that?

One area that is obviously true is in the area of housing policy, where are the federal government has consistently increased its role over the past 90 years the results have gotten worse.

If we only spend more money, we can solve homelessness. Really?
One of the reasons that the government never improves is that those in charge of our systems are never held into account. While businesses are given immediate feedback every by customers, sales, and lost sales, government officials seem to just fail into their next job. This week we'll reflect back on the work of our mayor Karen Bass and our governor Gavin Newsom and see how they are helping, or not helping, our real estate industry.

Let's blame climate change for everything!
In business, we are held accountable for our results. If I don't sell a home or do it properly, I get fired. I only get more business when I do well. That's also true in sports. A team that loses results in coaches, players, and management getting fired. Only in the US government do incompetent idiots keep their jobs, get raises, and promoted, year after year. Its the same people with the same problems, just new excuses. One of the latest excuses used by our government is climate change. Now, we can have a debate on whether the climate is changing, what is causing the change, and what the policy implications should be, but what is undeniable is that our government is using the excuse of climate change to avoid responsibility for its failures.
