    My “dream home” is still overpriced and could easily drop another 10 to 20 percent in the coming year or two, IMO.

    But I wouldn’t be able to afford my dream home comfortably, even with that price drop.

    Houses in a more comfortable price range seem to be selling like crazy at or near asking, as long as they’re in livable condition. By “livable” I don’t mean spotless and move-in ready … I mean fit for human habitation.

    I don’t think you remember correctly.

    I’m open to that my memory is crap. Why have memory, google remembers all.

    I am seeing the same thing but I think the real effect will be felt in the # of sales closing. Sales were only this “good” because there was motivated inventory willing to cut until it sold.

    Now that has thinned some sales will slow down. Frustration is a good term. Frustration for agents, sellers and buyers as the market starts freezing up again.

    I have been wondering when the “spring selling season” starts. Would we normally be seeing new stuff coming on now? I am looking at SFRs in La Jolla and there is not much new inventory at all. Most of the “new” listings are the same old retreads that have been on the market forever at 30-50% OVER peak pricing.

    Waiting for the high end correction ($2Millon plus homes) is like watching paint dry. Urbanrealtor implied in another thread that La Jolla won’t drop much. Why not?
