2009 Conforming Loan Limits Jump

[jpinpb]

I thought the consensus amongst most real estate experts/economists and such was that the peak was around Dec. 2006. Yes, properties were selling in 2007, but I don’t think they were selling for higher than the 2006 price. The same price, I can believe, but not higher. Generally speaking and I’m not talking about exclusive areas.

In my eyes, if prices continued to go up from the sale the previous year, then it’s still climbing up the peak. I think the declines started in 2007 – and that’s from the 2006 price. I’m not saying that 2007 did not have a sale that was over the 2004 price, for example. Does that make sense?

sdr – I know you’re not trying to sell me. I’d be your worst nightmare client and you value your time too much to take on a buyer such as myself. I don’t think any realtor out there would want to have to deal w/me. Which is why I’m doing all the work myself.

I am confident I will find a place. Offers I’ve made in the past were not accepted and it is frustrating, but I am very happy where I’m renting. Ideally, it would be a place I own. That is the ultimate goal. But only if it makes sense.

i could care less about the consus or stats among so called RE experts. they dont know what they are talking about.

Here is why I say Summer 2004 was peak. In the Spring of 2004, there were 10 to 20 buyers for every property. You could ask and get what ever you had the chutzpah to ask for. If you didnt get the highest price possible it was simply because you didnt ask. By July of 2004, something in the air had defintely changed. Beyond that, it was alot of shady financing getting people to contniue paying those prices and in some cases higher. If you knew what you were doing you could negotiate better deals after that. But in March 2004, if you asked you got!

I think there was shady financing since about 2002, that said, if the price continued to go up, irregardless of what type of financing, then we did not arrive at the summit peak. I say that was 2006.

We can agree to disagree on that, too.

No problem. I guess that I just happened to sell a few in Spring 2004 and had the nerve to ask for prices that were never seen again;)
