Fitch Ratings is projecting an additional 47% decline in real terms in the residential real estate market in San Diego, and 25% nationally, on top of the losses we’ve experienced so far. The decline is projected from 2Q 2008 and is expected to extend for five years:
I have to say, at the beginning of all this I thought we’d maybe see a 25% nominal hit and 40% real after adjusting for inflation. We’re already there, and I don’t get the sense this storm is over.
Now, Fitch’s projections are just that, projections. So we don’t know what’s going to happen. But if it even comes close to Fitch’s model, the economy will crater and it will take a long time to work through this. What do Piggs think?

Fitch, along with Moody’s and Standard and Poor’s, are the three major bond ratings agencies. Fitch has long been more pessimistic, and thus more accurate, than the other two.
I notice in their report that while they predict a continuing melt-down in prices for CA cities like SD and San Francisco, they predict the opposite for Texas cities like San Antonio, a theme I’ve advocated here before.
