Spring Housing Prediction

[peterb]

Sounds like the most sales activity, by far, is in the $400K and below range. Is this an accurate statement?

My fiancee is a buyer in a retail store and she reports that the management is cutting purchases of almost everything. They are cutting stock to an absolute minimum. Sales are way down over last year. They sell mostly to upper middle class and the wealthy. So these groups are cutting back on their nonessential spending right now. Maybe that correlates to an increase in spending on houses, what do I know?

All three tiers went down pretty fast since we had that big chunk thread. Sure some went down faster than others. Some went faster than my predictions none went slower than mine, or as slow as yours. Your sub-market must be “different”.

You should be glad to talk real estate with SDR instead of participate in “off topic” because he has always been in your camp on this one. I know participating in “off topic” is as self defeating as much as talking strait about price declines is. To each his own. You guys just keep walking that fine line of catching fences sitters and not pissing off the rest. Pretty soon the market will be good enough that you don’t have to do it anymore. That will be fun.
