Perhaps one should pin point that broad unfocused data in regards to his/her specific neighborhood location, price point, property type, carrying costs, condition, etc, before implying the chart showing improving conditions locally may be more meaningful to the OP than anecdotal evidence.

Interesting.
No slant here. You are right.
There is a ton of noise in the conversation, which is often unfortunate when we have no idea of the OPs threshold for poor advice or sensitivity of their BS Detector. Most of it is obviously shallow conjecture.
Positing sloppy and unfocused "data" with the gravitas that can be inferred a more formal delivery of such data tripped my trigger quicker than rambling conversation.

My edited statement, which has been in my mind since the OP opened the thread and which I think is a pretty good disclaimer for the OP to consider:
Perhaps one should pin point his/her specific neighborhood location, price point, property type, carrying costs, condition, etc, before offering or accepting advice.

In a perfect world we would sell now and buy and move to Florida. We can't move now and don't want to be landlords from another state. It looks like we will just stay put in the house and hope for the best in 5 years. House rental costs didn't make selling and renting for 5 years cost effective.
