[quote=sdrealtor]The problem I continue to have with the gloomy prediction from many in the media (as well as some of the doomsayers her) is the fact that they are often accompanied by discliamers such as “If and when rates go up, those pressures will be even greater.” You are essentially saying you guys are all idiots as long as what I think and want to happen does. If it doesnt happen…then nevermind.

I really don’t understand how they keep interest rates under 5%. The Fed pumping money into treasuries? Then the treasuries bubble pops and we’re all going to die? [shrug]

In what scenario do interest rates increase and housing prices stay the same? Is that possible?

Lord Jesus. I hope not.

That’s a bold statement sdr. The inventory is going to be suppressed for that long? Only through some kind of chicanery. More moratoriums? Shadow inventory? Something new? I gotta believe the floodgates have to be released at some point.

Ever consider the Ford Escape Hybrid? Gets better mileage than the Toyota, Honda, and Lexus crossovers. And is cheaper than their hybrid counterparts. You also get a $1500k tax credit if you buy one now. Plus, Obama has one. 😀

I used Edmund’s when buying my last car. Worked out pretty good. Got $700 below invoice. Figured that was ok.
