Thanks for your suggestion FormerSanDiegan, a lot to think about and consider. I am hoping that somewhere over the next 3-5 years there will be a slight upturn to sell, versus just down down down. Its tough to consider the condo losing between 30-50% of its value from 2005, but no point in crying over split milk now.

October 31, 2007 at 2:59 PM #93847(former)FormerSanDieganParticipantassuming that the market will ever get back to 2005 levels is a fools’ bet
Ever ?
If prices revert to 1997 levels (previous bottom), plus inflation when would we get to 2005 prices ?

October 31, 2007 at 3:03 PM #93850(former)FormerSanDieganParticipantI am hoping that somewhere over the next 3-5 years there will be a slight upturn to sell, versus just down down down. This is too short a time frame in my opinion. If this is your plan I would put it on the market at the end of January. (I would normally suggest to do so right now, but I think your chances to sell between now and the end of January are about zero).

Who knows, could be 5 years could 15 years. That is the problem with RE right now. The risk of it being illiquid for long time is too high given the current macro-econ picture.

October 31, 2007 at 3:11 PM #93865patientlywaitingParticipant2008 – After 5 years your loss on monthly carrying costs is about 42K. But you still have the 70K loss as well as any additional loss/gain in value over the next 5 years. (I'm guessing another 15% loss or about another 30K).
I think that the key to consider here is in 5 years, you'll STILL HAVE THE $70K LOSS of value + your carrying cost loss.
