Warren Buffet on real estate

Last but never least, Warren Buffett says that the economy "hasn't gotten worse" but also hasn't "gotten much better" over the past three months.  Nonetheless, he doesn't expect a 'double-dip' recession and sees significant improvement in residential real estate.  Buffett says that based on a number of indicators, including data from Berkshire Hathaway companies, "we have not bounced - but we've quit going down."  He also sees "important" signs of life for housing: "I think we're certainly-we're through the worst of it in residential real estate in all probability.  And- and- and the reason is we're building a lot fewer houses and we're- and we're forming households, so that solves itself over time.  Doesn't do it in a day or a week, but it solves itself.  So we're further on that."

I received this information from a friend on Twitter, he had posted the information on his Blog http://shortsalesriches.com/blog/
