[quote=sdrealtor]While we are guessing it’s interesting to note the range is from 160 to 372k. Applying the old rule of thumb that’s says you can afford a house of three times earnings it would appear this hypothetical family could afford prices from 480 to 1.116m without stretching. Is it any wonder prices are so high?[/quote]

Of course you’d sneak this in. The cheerleading is so 2005.

And strange that you’d later post:

[quote=sdrealtor]Is anyone else concerned that a household of 2 public sector employees (not executive level postions) have incomes placing them in the top 1 or 2% of US Households?[/quote]

So are prices so high because we have tons of workers making in the top 1-2% or should we wonder why they’re so high?
