sdrealtor, housing news has been so unremittingly bad for 18 months now it almost has to get better, for a while. Nothing goes straight down, not even the home builders.
I for one would love to see a strong selling (and buying) season come spring. It would help confirm to me that the secular trend is still on a whole moving in the right direction. 91-95 saw several of these rallies.
For prices to end up where I’ve predicted all along without any counter trend rallies would just be insane. 50% off is a lot of paper wealth vaporized.
