The point of this post was simply to point out the opportunity loss of buying too soon.
I was surprised at some of the pessimistic comments knocking the use of a 10% return, which I think is very reasonable.
The history of real-estate cycles is okay to predict the future but the history of stock indexes (10%) is not???
Poway, I am 80% cash in my portfolio right now as well, but I do not use the 20 year average of CD rates to calculate FV.
I am sticking to 10%.
