Interesting the poster left this part out from the article.
“The median price paid for all Southern California homes sold in December was $515,000, up 1.1 percent year over year.”
No doubt the real estate market has turned the corner. However, it’s still holding its ground. Who the hell can afford anything with prices going up at an eclipse pace like they have been for the last 6+ years?
As of now, it looks like spring 2018 was the best time to sell. We’ll see how spring 2019 will fare. Too early to jump to the conclusion at the moment.

2020 there will be attempt to repeal prop 13 or at least increase property taxes.
If you've got some pickles to go along with that my stomach is game.

Whats interesting about it ?
How much of the original article do you want someone to copy and paste?
There is a link and you can access the full article or is that too much work ?
On a personal note I am not concerned with the median price of a house in California, only in the motherland.
On the morning news they had CA politicians talk about their plan for 2020.
Will be promoted by “higher revenue for schools”. It’s coming. Channel 4.

“It’s been dripping down, down, down,” NAR chief economist Lawrence Yun said in the interview. “Frustrating that the housing market is not recovering.”

You should post the entire article otherwise you are manipulating the message.
Then the bastards can say that your post is too long and not to do it.
Really to please them just offer them money for nothing, that the only thing that works. Or tell them that they are smart.

From November to December, sales of new and existing houses and condominiums in Los Angeles, Riverside, San Diego, Ventura, San Bernardino and Orange counties dropped 8.2 percent.
Sales usually rise in Southern California between November and December, with an average increase of around 12 percent, so this was clearly a huge aberration.
•The housing pain persists in Southern California, as higher costs weigh heavily on potential buyers. Home sales in the region fell 20.3 percent year over year in December, according to CoreLogic. That is the lowest December sales pace since 2007.

•Sales usually rise in Southern California between November and December, with average increase of around 12 percent, so this was clearly a huge aberration.
"Last month's sharp drop in home sales stands out in several ways," said Andrew LePage, a CoreLogic analyst, noting that it was the slowest pace in 11 years and the largest decline for any month in more than eight years. "This drop in activity reflects a variety of factors. Mortgage rates hit a 2018 high in November, affecting December closings, and stock-market volatility created an additional headwind in high-end markets. Meanwhile, some would-be buyers remain priced out or unwilling to buy amid concerns that prices have overshot a sustainable level."
Sales of newly built homes fared particularly badly, down more than 50 percent from their average over the last 30 years. Much of that is because builders are still building far fewer homes since the housing crash, and part is because prices for newly built homes continue to soar.
"Half of America can only afford a $230,000 mortgage, and the builders in good locations just can't get down to anywhere near that," said John Burns, CEO of California-based John Burns Real Estate Consulting. "Eleven of the top 19 builders, their average sales price is above 400 grand."

If you go back and look what happened not so long ago, it is interesting to see the same type of headlines.
