You might be the lucky winner or you might just realize the MSM has been less than honest since the majority of people benefited. I ended up about the same, perhaps slightly worse off. But my kids and step kids who do not own homes benefited greatly. I do their taxes, and those who do not itemize but were kinda on the cusp of would be buyers were the big winners, but nobody will tell you that, most polls and articles say the opposite. I still encourage those in low price and low tax states to buy, but those still in So Cal I think this may be the X factor, however I have seen no evidence yet that it impacting prices. The reality is the people that can afford So Cal homes pay enough in state taxes to use up the salt limit that property taxes are no longer deductible, self included. But no sign of that yet in prices, not sure if we will see it. The market can remain irrational longer than you can stay solvent, as the saying goes.
