Rich old man wants you to continue using fiat money to keep you enslaved.

Ooo so brave, saying Bitcoin will go to 0! No one has heard that before!

> why shouldn't the price of loans (interest rates) be subject to the laws of supply and demand just like everything else?

They should be. It doesn't work though when the Fed comes along and buys the lion's share of loans.

Try finding an inspector who actually enjoys the job. They do great work.

You're an idiot if you haven't realized the relationship between QE and US treasury interest rates across the curve. You're an even bigger idiot if you don't understand the relationship between UST interest rates and every other interest rate.

Maybe that's your experience if you go with your Realtor's "suggested" inspector. Again, most home buyers probably just go this route since no one really cares about quality any more.

I researched my own inspector and chose a very technical retired engineer. He identified significant issues with the home that resulted in the price being reduced by 15%. You're an idiot if you waive inspections.

Most home buyers waive inspection contingencies. The market is one big fomo frenzy for the past decade when fed artificially suppressed interest rates below inflation. I bet home buyers would happily ignore reading any pamphlet explaining their risks related to natural disasters.
