I don't think it is all that bad. We are talking about 12,000 homes. I was living in Phoenix during the last housing bubble and bulldozing the desert and plopping down 12,000 homes was just another day at the office.

Love you optimism. But building the hillsides of coastal California and dancing the bureaucratic nightmare after the mess is cleaned up and re-regulated into hell, isn't quite the same task as throwing up homes being built in times of irrational exuberance. Hope I'm not too bleak, but.

I wonder how much of this land is now totally contaminated with a carcinogenic mass? I don't think they will be rebuilding homes any time soon. This is a disaster on a nuclear scale. The worst part is that like a nuke it appears to have been deliberately triggered.

Smart LA 2028. Search it.

Same story as Maui. Plastic toys not burned. Trees not burned (except from the inside). Wooden posts only burned where there are nails. Homes turned to white powder. See Peggy Hall vid. here:

Sorry, but we're all Gaza now.

Don't get a Smart meter. Not only can they stop your power when they want to, but they can individually target your house and burn it down for smart city purposes.

Oh, and read the late Rosa Koire (Behind the Green Mask), who is probably 'the late' because she warned us.

Good observation Peter. LetтАЩs see, what is so bad about radioactivity from any nuclear exchange? Cancer? LetтАЩs see, what is so bad about the toxic waste in the ashes of LA? Cancer? Add on, what is going to happen to the ocean when this junk washes into the ocean and the bulldozers fill it up with de-construction debris.

This is what's happening in Lahaina. A year later NOTHING REBUILT

I hope you are correct. There will be the cleanup and probably (I would assume) new zoning and building codes to tend with, raw materials and generally the availability of contractors. IтАЩm sure the Phoenix housing bubble built up to developing large tracts housing and marshalled the resources according to demand.

No, Robert is a dreamer. Phoenix builds housing fast because there is a demand for housing here for the last couple of decades. Right now? Housing is at a comparative standstill because of the realization that we do not have the water to supply much new construction.

Robert? Is the land now contaminated with burn toxins? Can it be re-built on at all? What happens when the Pineapple Express comes in this winter and drives all that crap into the soil and out to the Pacific? What do you do with the housing from Santa Monica to Malibu? Just bulldoze it into the ocean? This is not just throwing up a bunch of junk housing, like Phoenix. Your ignorance, not optimism, is showing. Luckily, we have Trump in ultimate control of the re-build, so SoCal stands a chance as long as they keep Newsom, Sacramento and the rest of the Leftist jerks away from LA.

Also, insurance companies normally provide 12 months of what's called Additional Living Expenses, which provides funds for the homeowner to live somewhere else why their home is being rebuilt.

Doubtful the land will be prepped and ready for re-construction this soon. Many homeowners will resort to taking their insurance settlement proceeds to another locale. Many will need to sell their land to someone?
