The Bubble Meter Philosophy
The best way to get the housing market thriving again is to drop prices to the point where supply equals demand. Home sellers might not like it, but it's good for buyers and it's great for Realtors.
For Realtors, the best way to make more money is to sell houses quickly, and the best way to sell houses quickly is to convince the seller to drop the price.

ReplyDeleteThis message has been brought to you by the National Association of Realtors.
That slope leading up to 2003 is a little too even and constant to my taste. I would expect a little downward trend in the early 80s and then again in the early 90s at the very least.
ReplyDeletethere's apparently only 3 data points from 78 to 2003.
ReplyDeleteAre you guys taking the plunge? Are you going to buy soon?
