    Rents are starting to fall in L.A. (and other markets). It is likely that San Diego is just one step behind L.A.

    Story from the L.A. Times: http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-rent8-2009jan08,0,5261091.story

    The San Diego real estate cycle has been ahead of the LA cycle for the past several years. The peak happened almost a year later in LA and the decline started in SD well ahead of LA. Shouldn’t SD have already been seeing these declines ?

    Maybe SD has experienced this already and perhaps I missed or have forgotten about it.

    Very interesting. Hopefully a reporter will investigate the rents’ trend in apartments vs. condos vs. SFHs, which I believe are different beasts.

    Many Piggingtonians are biting the bullet and searching for a house to buy based on a favorable (or nearly neutral/favorable) rent vs. buy calculation. However, as the recession and deflationary environment get worse in 2009-2010, watch our for declining rents.

    You may still find out that you grossly overpaid for a house if rents continue to drop substantially.

    All the more reason for home prices to continue falling for several more years.
