I’ve been sitting on this photo for about ten years so it’s about time!
The vice president and I have things in common. We were both born in Oakland and she got her start at the same place my grandfather did. Her law career began in 1990 at the Alameda County’s District Attorney’s office – my grandfather was there from 1923-1969, including his 22 years as the district attorney.
My brother’s wife Jill worked at the DA’s office at the same time as Kamala (circled above)!
What does Kamala’s ascent to the top of the ticket mean for home sales?
Biden dropping out of the race has to provide some calming to the real estate market, especially in gloomy blue states where hope was dismissed about three weeks ago. Even though local sales have been healthy, if the hopium causes a critical 10% to 20% of extra demand then we could see a surge over the next 30+ days.
She is a fantastic speaker, and it won’t take long for the polls cast doubt on the outcome. Even if she loses, she will provide enough comfort for the rest of 2024 that our market should survive quite nicely.
As long as nothing gets too negative, home sales should be fine!
I did not have Dark Brandon Real Estate agent on my bingo card this year.
