i hate “probably be ok” after 10-20 years! that woudl suck. 10-20 years should be almosta sure thing…but it isn’t. that’s what makes me think it has to fall to where 10-20 years is virtually a sure thing. if wages fall, unemployment spikes, why should rents stay the same? they should be falling, esp. if “investors” are snatching up rental properties and increasing demand. “i’s really difficult to predict things, especially the future”. The future itself is so hazy to me. I cannot have any sense of what it might look like economically, socially…nothing i’m reading inspires me to buy. somehow I have the feeling that this inert house is going to suck the money, energy and life out of me. I guess what i wan treally is the bottom of the market, even though i won’t admit it. i want a screaming deal. I don’t think that time is now. I think these are acceptable deals.
