How can a financial institution lend at rates lower than inflation? Fraudulent market?
A drop in home prices, Shiller says, looks very possible.

Mortgage rates surpass 5% again
It's called a mafia front. They are laundering money.
Fire sale in the condo complex next door in Tri Valley hood. Five signs went up almost overnight. I remember when I coulda bought one of those places cash for 80K, but was too nervous about overextending myself. They are half a million and above now.

This really isn't a prediction. It's very possible we'll get hit by an astroid.
Shiller is okay at stats, but this isn't even a prediction. It's a maybe guess type play. And any moron that knows what interest rates are knows that housing is gonna slow down. There's nothing outside of hipster areas indicating a crash.
Any crash in housing would be employment created. We have boomers retiring. Employers cannot even find people that want to work. And many boomer kids have stayed with their parents, so they're not selling. In my opinion housing is fine or the foreseeable future in 90% of markets. A few might get beaten up and bring down the median and averages, but I see no doom coming. Aside from the feds doing a mega bump in rates, housing is pretty damn stable right now.
In Austin, at least 20% of all transaction in SFH are housing speculators.

How do you get this data ? Is it through a real estate company source ? Or you check the county appraiser website or property records online ? I usually look at a neighborhood (i.e., home owners association) in my Florida county and check the appraiser website. If a home is not marked for homestead exemption then it is most likely a second home or rented.

They think the suckers are still out there in droves.

Bond manager Mark Kiesel sold his California home in 2006, when he presciently predicted the housing bubble would pop. He bought again in 2012, after U.S. prices fell more than 30% and found a floor.
Now, after a record surge in prices, Kiesel says the time to sell is once again at hand.
