      Housing Data: Crybabies and Deceivers
      mlambert890, has it occurred to you that your EU friends are buying vacation Florida property because the dollar is so cheap? Our inflated housing prices are not so inflated for them, but we Americans must buy with devalued dollars.

      mlambert890, your slant is suspect, having just taken your own homne off the market. Sounds like it was also too overpriced to sell. You're just the type of homeowner I referred to as not facing the real world of inflated housing prices.

      Good article and to the point and problem: Elevated housing prices.
      In our Florida retirement commmunity, the posted sales prices are usually what the sellers EXPECTED them to be worth when they bought 2-3 years ago. Dumb. THe listed houses are losing thousands of dollars per week while the unrealistic prices keep prospective buyers away. It seems that buyers are smarter than sellers.

      Robert Shiller on America's 'Speculative Culture'
      Tim is right. The culture has changed so that damn near EVERYONE is (was?) ready to speculate. This IS different and it's not good.

      Shiller at BAAS: Housing Will Continue to Fall
      I don't know your parameters of "lower-priced&quo... homes, but those in the $500,000 range are feeling a lot of pain on the downside, too.

      A Tale of Two Coasts
      Price reduction of homes in Florida is far from commensurate with increasing inventory. Prices are going to have to fall - a lot - before Florida inventory is reduced to reasonable market balance.

      Dispelling the Financial Myths Behind the Credit Crunch
      The market works - if we let it. It will not work if government steps in to alter its workings. And that is what the government is doing with respect to housing. Housing prices must fall - a lot - for the market to work.
