From Forbes:
"...as all these considerations continue to encourage the flight from cities to suburbs, they will also create a market-based countercurrent...rents in major urban centers have begun to decline, falling 0.5% over the past year...Prices of condominiums have also begun to show weakness....these reductions in the cost of urban living and doing business will draw both new residents and new businesses.

"Because real estate is built on quantitative evidence and objective facts, it’s unlike to play much of a role as the election enters its final stretch of dispiriting lunacy.
