I’m not advocating anything. I’m pointing out that down markets turn around without every body who wants to buy getting filled. In fact, that is what creates the turnaround.

I’m also pointing out that the “losses” holders of real estate are suffering are really only affecting the few who have to sell or those who have used their home as a bank. The vast majority of home owners are doing neither.

I’m also pointing out that very few people relatively will get homes at or near the bottom ticks.

Lastly, I’m pointing out that, even right now, one can buy real estate as an investment and get a very nice return, from renters. And that real estate investment in the long or midterm is not only likely to rise but historically has always risen.
