  2. I agree with you.

    Large sections of California, Florida, Nevada, and Arizona are in freefall.

    The NorthEast is finally starting to pick up steam on the downside. Wall St and the financial sector layoffs are adding fuel to the fire.

    The paltry drop in mortgage rates despite many rate cuts isn't materially helping anyone.

    Inventories are at multi-decade highs.

    RE is going lower.
     
  3. Detroit-metro had a 5-20% correction on avg but now is pretty stable. My house has actually gone up in value(according to comps) over the past 3 months.

    You are wrong.

    Housing is getting better day by day because it becomes AFFORDABLE.

  7. You guys have too many foolish condo developers. Not true for many other areas of the country, especially the midwest.

    id say afordable is another 40-50% in my area...where houses went up 4 fold since i bought in 2000... sorry but somehow i just dont see this thing being ova anytime soon.
     
  9. That's because nobody moves to the midwest. They move to the coasts.
