Los Angeles – King of The West
Analysis of: Political Foreclosure | www.latimes.com
Author: Paul Burns, Owner, City Investments
It’s hard to believe that the formerly largest industrial city in the nation has fallen on hard times for jobs.  But apparently so be it as the last remaining king, the Garment industry, is about to topple.  Just yesterday the entertainment industry was king here too, but we know its influence...

Underwiting real estate investment now is a political risk assessment
Analysis of: The Case For Housing Help | www.usnews.com
Author: Paul Burns, Owner, City Investments
In my mind, the debate as to housing affordability and commercial real estate viability is over.  The game is lost as $ 21 trillion in housing value will become $ 15 trillion in the next few years and commercial real estate values will drop 25 to 50 % on the average in the next few years.
