What is shocking about the graphs is how different they are from each other. A Case-Shiller graph shows the North Bay Area (covers San Mateo to Marn). Seattle and L.A. are included. The overall housing market, page 1 of 4, is not shocking and, Boston (on page 2) is rather. But fasten your seat belts for the charts on the last 2 pages.

everything says
Sure, areas can seem bubbly, but affordability and competition, bidding wars, would seem to weigh strongly in bay area.


I am only looking at California as I don't have a pulse on the whole country. Yes, I think wages are a little more in line than before, and we don't have the insane teaser rates, that then became the regular rate to prop housing up.

Question, if you click on the link I posted, how can someone need principal reduction if prices are going up?

And yes, I think interest rates moving just a little are going to hurt badly. I also think interest rates ergo house values have their back against the floor. There is no more lowering of interest rates to prop up the market, that is why the state has resorted to loans that turn into gifts as a hope of preserving current levels.
