Housing price predictions in SF Bay area (west of the Bay)
I'm just waiting on the Option ARM recasts, speculators will be fleeing the SF market like rats from a sinking ship. Many won't even wait for recast, they will see that even paying the minimum is no longer worth it and walk.

Prices will recover in _______ years?
The market will recover, as in you will be able to buy a home without fear that its value will plummet (thats when I plan to buy). But another housing bubble that brings prices back to 2005 levels seems very unlikely. Those price to income levels are historical highs, not the norm.
