Home Demand - Is it rising or not?

Interesting discussion today about housing demand. We will talk a little about the predictions but also bring in some high tech news that I think will play in to housing demand in the years to come. Its a bit out there, but worth your time and consideration! Technology is rolling toward us like a stampede and I never hear economists talking about its likely effects when they make long term predictions. In addition to reading up on real estate issues, I like to trawl the tech blogs and sites regularly. Doing that makes it clear, there are big changes coming - and only the prepared will survive!
