[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think until real estate agents stop thinking that AA neighborhoods are automatically low income, nothing will change. There are places with predom AA communities like Largo and Laurel which have a high AA middle class population, in really nice homes, but because they are AA communities, their values are much lower. Until that stigma changes, it will lead to further eradication of the black middle class in the region. [/quote]

Real estate agents? Give me a break. [b]Real estate agents don't care where their clients buy.[/b] They just want to make sales, and collect their commissions.

Gentrification and increasing density is what pushes black people out of DC. Look at Petworth or any number of other neighborhoods. [/quote]

WRONG. You clearly missed the story about real estate agents in Long island and their racist ways. They steered white people to certain homes and black people to undesirable areas. This happens more often that you think. Real estate agents can act as gatekeepers of racism where housing is concerned.[/quote]

You have clearly never bought a house before. [/quote]

This is a true story so you are wrong.
