    I've already seen it. At least 3-4 new listings per day this month that are in my price range.

    You should be happy iwog.. people will actually be buying homes... CHEAP!

    They will have more savings to keep ... not giving it to the bank, landlords or government. They might even be happy!

    Now why would that trouble a landlord like you ?

    1997 prices plus inflation = buy !

    what year your in doesnt matter.. its all about what price your paying based on long term fundamentals.. Some in the Bay Area havent hit their trend line... but they will.

    Is there something magical about 1997? Why do you choose that as the year to use?

    what year your in doesnt matter.. its all about what price your paying based on long term fundamentals.. Some in the Bay Area havent hit their trend line... but they will.

    You will note that (per that graph) some areas have been running above trendline since 1987. Yes, the got close back in 95-96, but they never got all the way there.

    Imagine the 1994 buyer in San Jose who stumbled across that chart. He would see the trendline then at 200K, yet San Jose still at 250K and conclude "San Jose is gonna crash, I will wait it out".

    Imagine too he stubbornly clung to his prediction that SJ would "revert to the mean" and refused to buy in 1995, 96, 97, followed by his horror as prices exploded upward 1998 and beyond, causing him to wait even further.

    Finally, even if they did magically "revert to the mean" today, SJ would fall to 300K. Meaning at the end of the day, our poor guy would refuse to buy at 250K, rent for 18 years waiting for prices to fall, and then buy at 300K.

    Bottom line - at some point you have to give up on the idea of all areas reverting to the mean. Seeing as it has been 24 years since all areas were on the trendline, I would say 24 years is enough...

    Uh, I believe that's a Redfin chart. So, it's according to Redfin. Iwog just posted it.

    you need to understand the concept of what the chart is showing..this is the theme of Robert Shillers book ... Irrational Exuberance.

    repost....

    http://patrick.net/forum/?p=1209792

    Below are May 1997 prices..http://archive.dqnews.com/AA1997BAY06.shtm.. factor in inflation and income growth.. we are looking at 30-40% higher prices today..
    that would mean prices below would range within the forecast below with actual recent prices at July 2012

    as you can see Contra Costa / Solano are just right with 1997 prices + inflation (40%)
    Sanoma isnt too bad, but like the chart above stll indicates... others need to still correct. With 40% the numbers may be over-optimistic. You may need those Facebook options after all to skyrocket to buy any home at the median. I would discount Marin ... old money doesnt need income...LOL! Santana is doing just fine!

    ..................Actual 1997 ..Frcst..Act2012 Delta + Over - Under priced
    Alameda... ............$219 $306 $385 .....78
    Contra Costa .......$225 $315 $308.......-7
    Marin .....................$357 $499 $660 ......160
    Napa ......................$170 $238 $372 ......134
    San Francisco ......$289 $404 $565 .......160
    San Mateo .............$324 $458 $714 .......260
    Santa Clara ...........$302 $422 $618 .......195
    Solano ....................$149 $208 $188.........-21
    Sonoma ...................$210 $294 $320 ........26
    Bay Area ...................$258 $361 $421 .......60

    I'm surprised Santa Clara County's delta isn't higher.

    The chart is showing that all areas in the SFBA were "reverted" if you will, as of 1987. Since then, some areas (particularly, San Jose and San Francisco) have deviated to the high side of the mean. That was 24 years ago.

    If certain areas havent reverted to the mean in 24 years, how much longer should one wait for them to revert to the mean before they decide its OK to buy?
