Gluskin Sheff Chief Economist & Strategist David Rosenburg;

"The deflation in housing is going to continue. Housing is only about 40% through its reversion process. In fact, along with housing, the entire household debt deleveraging process is still in progress and still has a tremendous way to go. This deleveraging cycle will remain a dead-weight drag on the economy for quite a long time."

Great link.

"household debt deleveraging", no problem I'll just make minimum payments on my credit card. LOL

Sure,it is going to keep reversing until $ printing machines stops.

Yup, this housing crash is nowhere near over regardless of how much mindless quacking is heard.

"It seems very unlikely only five years into such enormous, structural shifts in the US economy that the repricing process is over in housing.

At minimum, I expect the median price of single-family existing homes to revert to the 2000 level of $147,000, with the strong possibility of an overshoot to the $125,000 level. This process will take SEVERAL MORE YEARS."

Anyone want to guess what "a little bit" means?

I place my bets on just after the election.

Housing shit the bed, and we still working on gettin all the stains out. Bobby Shiller says it's probably better off if you keep renting from Jody for a spell...

"Recent research by Robert Shiller indicates sounding the all-clear for a housing recovery is premature since the home-price rebound, if that's what it is, doesn't yet have momentum - which is the most powerful driver of home prices. As he notes in today's WSJ, momentum is a modestly weak force in the stock market but the most important driver of the 'feedback loop' in home-price increases (followed by unemployment). "It could be a bottom, I just don't know", he adds pointing to the large overhang of homes that are either in foreclosure of near it - which would push prices down further if they were ever released to the market (wanting to see momentum carry into the Spring to be convinced). Critically, he sees bubbles once again forming in some areas, commenting that investors have been "primed to think speculatively" adding that "There was a change in our mindset. Now we start thinking about the housing market as like the stock market." Our question is, if the increasingly speculative housing market is part of the CPI basket, why then is the stock market not also part of what is now an inflationary basket chock full of QE-sensitive assets."

I can rent it out to recoup some of the interest I had to pay, or more likely sell it, so I can trade up.

You're not going to be trading up anytime soon junior.

9   HEY YOU   2012 Aug 8, 1:37pm  

I can see into the future but I'm not telling anyone about what's about to happen.

10   gbenson   2012 Aug 8, 5:37pm  

There is an obvious floor in prices, and much of the low end inventory that's hitting the market is at that floor. ( So they ain't going lower)

When my net income on renting a property out is 10% (I can recoup the purchase price in 10 years after all expenses), then investors will buy and it will hold the price.

By this measure, mid-range and some higher end properties still have a ways to fall, but low end properties are pretty near bottom.

You don't need a crystal ball -- just basic numeracy will do.

why do people think that if you buy a house, and hold on to it long enough, it will magically appreciate in value? That's pretty backwards assed, when you stop and think about that over a long enough stretch of time,,,,,,

Put that house on a postage stamp lot in Atherton or Woodside and it'd STILL get at least a mil

15   anonymous   2012 Aug 9, 1:04pm  

and in ten years, it will certainly be worth ten million!

Ever since Y2K... that has been the ongoing thinking ! I certainly dont know where they came up with this nonsense.

Call it Crazy says

Don't you know..... everyone buys a house and lives in it for at least 30 years... then they are rich when it's paid off free and clear!!

Bubble prices were about selling their home and early retirement.
Not sure how buyers could fall for paying for both!

Why would anyone want to pay 200-300% vs few years prior.

18   thomaswong.1986   2012 Aug 9, 1:57pm  

Call it Crazy says

Isn't that what every realtor tells you to get you to buy??

yes, some crazy thing about "forced savings"... fast forward.. no savings there, but the exact opposite.

hey what happened to 401K,IRA, cash savings accounts, investment , etc...

Big Sur/Carmel Street Report

Lots of inventory, for sale signs growing like weeds, prices are slipping but no bites because prices are still much much too high. Very few sales. It's going to be a long winter.

Yep, the enormous total of 29 properties listed on Redfin for below $1m for the Carmel, Big Sur and Carmel Valley area. And that includes 11 that are pending. It's a veritable tsunami.

RentalWatch says

Per movoto, there is over 1000 houses for sale in the Carmel area. Given the inflated prices, this should be no surprise.

Strange. I just went to Movoto and typed in 93923 and SFH and got a grand total of 48 results (actually 100 if you untick the 'has photos' box)- with no maximum price. Redfin shows 213 listings doing the same search.

Edit: Just done the search again on Movoto and it's showing 162 listings. Don't know what's up with the site. Still rather a long way from over a 1000 though.

22   Bigsby   2012 Sep 27, 9:47pm  

RentalWatch says

You "typed in 93923"????

This is how you're going to misrepresent this one too?

Nice try.

It's called a zip code. Guess where for?

23   Bigsby   2012 Sep 27, 9:52pm  

So let me get this straight, your response to being shown to be a liar about the situation in Carmel is to post up a graph that shows you don't know where 2004 is. Well done.

Obfuscate you coward!

That is just another one of their ACTS.
