Participantjpinpb: Simply put………………………”It is what it is”.
The temptation is to make an emotional decision when buying a home despite knowing better. If you can detach your emotional feelings from the “gotta have a home, NOW” syndrome and make a logical, rational decision, you’ll have a lot more money when you get old and gray. Those who don’t will simply look back and say, “I should’ve……………I could’ve…………..I would’ve:…………………If only I had used a little common sense. There will always be greater fools in any marketplace for any item. One can choose to be a follower or an independent thinker who looks at all the available information and attempts to make a logical, rational decision. I have always chosen NOT to be a follower and it has served me well. 🙂Participantjpinpb: Simply put………………………”It is what it is”.

Just because a certain number of people refuse to accept reality doesn’t change reality. If you choose to go ahead and buy a home now, be my guest but my educated guess is that if you do, you will be back here within a year moaning about how much the value of your house has dropped (just like the guy from Temecula that we told not to buy but he did because he wife just had to have a house………………he came back on this board around six months later and his home value had already dropped over $50k+)

ParticipantThere is no shortage of fools who are ready to rush out and buy a home in San Diego. It’s a long way from the bottom and those who buy now will regret their hasty, emotional, “gotta have it now” desire for owning home and paying way too many $$$$$ for houses. You probably won’t see the bottom until 2011-2012 and by then, there will be plenty of houses to choose from. And after the bottom is finally found, prices are not going to magically zoom upward again for a loooooooong time. Any rational, logical person can simply look at all the information that is readily available on all the major, news websites and in newspapers to see which direction the economy is headed for the next few years and what’s going to continue to happen in the housing market.
Don’t be a sucker and follow the herd while they’re jumping off a cliff.ParticipantThere is no shortage of fools who are ready to rush out and buy a home in San Diego.
