The Oklahoma City Real Estate Bubble
March 19, 2009 by
This is a topic that usually stirs quite a bit of debate, mostly by local folks who don’t have a grasp on how bad things really are outside of our little bubble. Yep, I said ‘bubble.’ I know, BAD BUZZ WORD! Over the past few years, this word has taken on a pretty negative persona, […]
