        look out the roof is on fire.
        SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.

          San Diego is already dropping. And it was never worth what they were asking anyway.

            True but what I had in mind was more along the lines of "how much further down will it go?"

            Anyone know how long housing bear markets normally run?

                  Once the ARMs kick in.....its over cause majority of those people will not be able to refinance into a fixed rate mortgage(they went No Doc for a reason)
                  I say a year or 2 until it fully bottoms causes houses aren't as liquid as stocks

                      That sucks.
                      Suffering arises from attachment to desires.
                      Suffering ceases when attachment to desire ceases.

                        Doesn't make sense.... those are the top cities where median prices are dropping. This clearly makes it a buyer's market in those cities, right?

                          I guess the US is like Australia where even in cities where they say the medium is dropping certain areas are still going up, trick is to pick these suburbs.
