ParticipantIt will look like “water, water everywhere, but not a drop to drink.”
Prices will be low, but even though the extrememly tight credit markets of the last couple years have started to loosen up, you will have difficulty scraping together a down payment and qualifying for the loan you want.
People “in the know” will say sharp things like “cash is king, baby.”
P.S. Nice post, contrarian. #3 is a classic.

alot2) People you would talk to would comment on how it was cheeper to buy than rent
3)My brother bought his first house in ’89
My brother bought 2 in ’05! When he buys, I am thinkin’ sell sell sell!
