Zillow, USC Team Up to Host Housing Forum in San Francisco on Oct. 12

After a housing recession that eclipsed the Great Depression, many markets are again experiencing home value appreciation sparked by high demand but a low supply of homes. What are the sources of this situation, and how long will it last? What will come next? What should real estate professionals and consumers know about this “new” housing market?

To help answer some of these questions, Zillow and the University of Southern California Lusk Center for Real Estate will host the half-day “Forum on California’s Housing Market: Navigating the Post-Bottom Landscape” on Oct. 12 at San Francisco’s Palace Hotel.

Our keynote speaker will be FHA Commissioner Carol Galante, and we’ll be joined by two panels of experts discussing whether now is a good time to buy in California and the future of Proposition 13.

You can register here for the free event, and more information and ongoing news about the forum is available on our housing forum site or by following hashtag #CAhousing on Twitter.
