2. They'll have to remodel and add rooms so they can take in
members of the family, friends, former neighbors, or just plain rent-paying tenants as more and more people are forced out by foreclosure or higher and higher rents -- and those who still have houses need renter income to keep up the mortgage along with rising cost of utilities, gas, groceries, etc.

I just wonder how many of these huge homes, like the big Victorians in the neighborhood I lived in in Norfolk, VA, will ultimately be turned into apartment units.
