ParticipantRustico, that’s the right stuff (in your paragraph).
But the point I was really making is that investors supplying money for new home loans may demand a higher return over the next 10-20 years, in comparison to the rate of HPA, than they got over the last 10-20 years. This debacle will show them that they’re the ones providing most of the money and taking most of the risk, something they haven’t really appreciated until now. The only way around that is a lot of ‘sorta dumb’ money not seeing the risk in front of their noses, or at least choosing to ignore it for bigger reasons.

Participanttg, funny post! I too have a long list of idiot failures to act on my hunches, even when I was damn near certain. My latest is just a few months old. I was feeling really good for lots of reasons about the Yen moving up. This was when it was over 122. But I didn’t have a broker account that allowed me to trade the futures. I kept putting off opening that broker account, thinking about it once every 2 or 3 days, but only when all the offices were closed. My plan would have paid off well over $100K. Not enough for a scribe to write my posts, or peel grapes for me, but…. sigh… I have lots more
Lesson for both of us…. Go with the hunches… and get off duff and execute them.
BTW, looks like you have that home of yours in your crosshairs and just need to pull the trigger when you’re ready’re. Congrats.

ParticipantFSD, here’s the source for the data. There are headings that help understand the data. The first of the last 3 columns is the closing price. Next come high and low prices. I visit often, and it seems like the low prices and the daily closes have been the same for much of the last month.

ParticipantLA_Renter has it right.
This (likely) doveish stance by the Fed, and the rush to increase the $ limits on FNMA/Freddie loans, and the FAS 140 interp from the SEC…. may start to add up. And expect lots more…. It’s not all in the bag by any means.

Participantsdr, leverage only increases the return as long as lenders agree to charge less (after tax) than the rate of (after tax) increase in home prices. This ‘free money’ may be less free in the future, unless government guarantees, explicit or implicit, are further extended to insure the lenders against loss. Lenders have been supplying most of the money, and taking most of the risks. They may eventually get smarter.
