metro area: Should I Go To The Inauguration?

metro area: Is there a Post-Election 'Bump' in the Washington, D.C. Metro Area?

There is a an Urban Legend, perpetuated by the local press, that the day after a new President is elected real estate agents around the Washington D.C. metro are immediately called in to action helping the incoming and outgoing political players buy and sell real estate.
I am curious if any of you have seen, or experienced in the past, this phenomenon. It would be interesting to know, too, if people are more likely to rent, or rent out, their properties this time given the current state of the national real estate market.
