ParticipantI think if you are buying a house in todays market you are not competing with first time home buyers but with savvy investors that are not thinking about will my rental increase in value this year or the next. They are thinking long term, they know interest rates will eventually go up and with it rents will also increase with inflation. This is their gold, their hedge against inflation. This of course is just my opinion!

Have you really been losing properties you were interested in to FHA buyers? I just dont see many around here. In fact only 20% down seems to be unusual. I think you are looking at problems in others areas and projecting your frustration to this area. I’m pretty sure you arent competing with FHA buyers around here.May 30, 2010 at 8:44 PM #557642sdrealtor

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but patience and due diligence do not entitle you to anything going forward. You have already been rewarded by lower prices and losses you never sustained. But going forward its an even playing field for you and everyone else. Your best option is to be happy you have avoided the carnage and try to keep a clear/fresh perspective going forward. I know thats not the easiest thing to do but its what you need to try to do.May 30, 2010 at 8:48 PM #557651sdrealtor
