Take a home that show well in good condition and is priced right and I’ll show you a property in or about to go into escrow.

That is SUCH an escapist tactic. EVERY HOME has a price at which it will sell NOW! All you are really saying is that distress hasn’t hit the areas that are nice as hard as it has hit the areas that aren’t nice. I’m pretty sure we can all agree on that.

If I remember correctly, you were predicting quite a spring bounce. Not just in well priced 4 bedroom, nicely staged homes, west of the 5. That’s not a spring bounce at all.
