  1. There was so much speculation in the San Diego real estate market, what we’re seeing now seemed inevitable.

    A house is worth no more than what someone is willing to pay you for it. No buyer? Value = $0. House prices have held steady throughout the past 100 years in the US at 3x median income of whatever area you study… because every house you build must be affordable to the workers within the surrounding area.

  5. I was reading the other day that we’ve lost $2.2 trillion in home equity in the US. That’s alot of money out of economy.
