My original reply to Blackarcher specifically bolded this part

The buyers who get the shaft here are the investors who are treating homes as extra investment income or a business who expect to make a profit

I took that to mean - rent/flip/grow-op what have you all people looking for income/return.

Flippers, do I feel sorry for them? No, but I don't blame them or wish them any misfortune. Which on a whole is what I was talking about.
