You can’t hide from it. As much as we don’t want to admit it, we are a visual society. Don’t judge a book by its cover? Well who doesn’t, literally? When you’re at a bookstore browsing, are you really going to waste your time picking up a book that has a bland and boring cover? Of course you aren’t and don’t you pretend you’re not as vain and ADD as the rest of us. You’re going to pick up the book with the big bold letters and fascinating cover art. You don’t have time to waste on taking the chance of a plain book cover actually being a great book.

If we are honest, it still comes down to the natural laws of supply and demand for the housing market to fully recover.
