[quote=BGinRB][quote=FormerSanDiegan]Based on fundamentals we are below the long-term average in terms of monthly housing costs relative to rents and incomes. [/quote]

You are mistaken. Clearly the monthly housing costs relative to rent and incomes are below 30-year averages as shown in Rich’s recent charts.
