    How much inflation have we had between 2002 and 2008 ? I am trying to figure out what inflation adjusted value of a home in 2002 should be in 2008 ?

    I think maybe two better questions are: (1) What has been the annualized increase in rents in the area you’re looking at, and (2) What has been the annualized increase in income in the area you’re looking at. I’d argue that the generic rate of inflation doesn’t get to the heart of the matter. Affordability (re: incomes) and economics (re: rents) do.

    2002 the San Diego CPI was 198. Now it’s at least 234. This means a house worth $300,000 in 2002 (the April Median) should be worth 300,000*(234/198) or $354,500. The latest median per dataquick was 430,000 in December.
