The WSJ Is Wrong on the Housing Crisis [view article]
FINANCING will always be the key to real estate prices. Aside from the normal cyclical up and downturns weighed in by greed and fear, pricing and valuation of usable and relatively desirable homes and real property is a direct function of the availability, cost, and terms of purchase financing or (F.A.C.T). It is the ultimate ingredient that makes or breaks real estate market prices.While argument is plentiful for the law of supply and demand to be the governing factor for pricing and valuation, one need not forget that it is financing itself (or FACT) that keys the pricing that directly affects and determines real estate supply and demand cycles.
Demand for desirable, affordable, and well priced real estate is a given. To measure or predict housing and real estate pricing/valuation trends use the FACT gauge.
