If everyone went with < 3X income, half the sales from this century wouldn't have happened!

Most calculators allow a total debt-to-income ratio of no more than 36 percent. And home payment to-income ratio of 28% for our conservative estimate, and 33 percent for the aggressive one. In CA, 40% and 50% ratios were routinely used and that's what helped cause home prices to double from 2001 to 2005, not the common notion that QCOM employees were completely responsible for jump.

Heres a good site from a CA CPA. Anyone who has questions on real estate taxes should read this. Would it be asking too much for Realtor to read this page and have a real basic understanding of these concepts? Yes, it would. You very well cant expect them to understand basic real estate tax law because you aren’t paying them $30,000 or more. Oh, wait you are paying them, but oh, never mind.

We will never see another opportunity to buy at this level or lower except maybe after the election and next year, etc.

Never underestimate the central banks, the sovereign funds, pension funds in tiny Finnish towns, etc that will do something crazy like buy 10 year with the dollar in free fall. Logic dictates that the 10 year should stay put or move up slightly with inflation, but the markets are so cooked that 10 year has better chance of going to 3.25.
I tried the rising rate fund in 2003 and got burned. Bought RRPIX when 10 year was at 3.6 and sold few years later when 10 year was at 4.5 and I lost 10%!!!!! I was right on the direction, but the damn Phds couldn’t manage the futures properly to keep exact -100% correlation.
