The expiry of a 2 percentage point reduction in the payroll tax – which, unlike the top rates of income tax, is in fact paid by the middle class. $95 billion dollar hit from 2012-2013 http://www.ft.com/intl/cms/s/0/7d66f674-5419-11e2-9d25-00144feab49a.html#axzz2Gl5LxG2z

Good article Riversider. I think the tax holiday ending will have more of an effect on consumer spending than real estate in the early goings. People will adjust accordingly to the 2% tax increase but it should not harm markets.
Government spending cuts are on a 2 month delay and to me that uncertainty would throw a monkey wrench at the real estate market before the tax holiday expiring.
It slammed WalMart, but there is no WalMart in NYC. WalMart is on Columbia County.
