Author: Jim Belfiore, President, Belfiore Real Estate Consulting

Notes on the Evolution of the Sub-Prime Solution
Analysis of: Preventing a Panic | www.usnews.com
Author: Paul Burns, Owner, City Investments
The Editorial referenced presents a picture of treasury risk that is not understood and therefore not ratable at this time. The combination of insurance underwriting failures and leverage and ultimate liability, however, at the worst threatens to bust institutions holding portfolios when the losses...

Analysis of: Birth, Death and Shopping | www.economist.com
Author: Paul Burns, Owner, City Investments
 The modern mall is a creature that is usually now 35 or so years old.  The birth and evolution of the industry is chronicled in the featured article.  Originally some 1600 strong, the breed now numbers say 1100 and will diminish further as the next era evolves.

What's happening on the border?
Analysis of: Tijuana Mayhem | www.signonsandiego.com
Author: Paul Burns, Owner, City Investments
At the same time the subject article was running, the New York Times and Los Angeles Times printed articles about the Federales pursuing the gangs on Tijuana’s streets and the mayor taking gunfire at home. This vast country of say 50+ million is looking more and more like its third world cousins...

SIGN POSTS INDICATE BETTER YEAR FOR LAS VEGAS
Analysis of: Homes for Sale in Las Vegas Still Sliding | www.lvrj.com
Author: Steve Bottfeld, Principal, Marketing Solutions
Housing market’s statistics from 2007 showed why Las Vegas builders and Realtors raised their glasses to toast the New Year with trembling hands. Many analysts have already forecast 2008 to be a worse year for Las Vegas than 2007. I disagree.

Contrasting housing markets
Analysis of: New housing outlook: 5 years to recover | www.azcentral.com
Author: Paul Burns, Owner, City Investments
Finally we have the first forecast of a housing recovery that seems believable. The five year forecast for Phoenix appeals to my sense of reality and I agree. I also agree that we will forget the current pain and euphoria will reign again.

We need working cities to be competitive in ths world
Analysis of: In Major Projects, Agreeing Not To Disagree | www.nytimes.com
Author: Paul Burns, Owner, City Investments
Every city has this problem. The public sector has little capability to meet the needs for streets, sewers, water systems, power grids and the other backbone items required to open for business every day. What’s fundable is patchwork and it appears we’re patching the patches too often now.
