We too started looking to buy a starter home, but after seeing that a lot of these banks refuse to go lower on their homes for sale and also are refusing to put out all their foreclosures (as to avoid a complete flood of them and thus lower prices) we have stopped looking. These banks are obviously out of tune with reality. These home prices need to come down and reflect our economic situation. Well, it is November 2009 and yes home prices continue to fall.

Up here in NorCal some counties (SF, for example) have very few foreclosures, while others are bleeding and down 50+%. Thanks, Will Hey dafox, Alan Davis,

The closest I have found is SLOcounty homes.com but it isn't nearly as informative, truthful nor as in depth as yours. Thanx in advance. Dear Dr. HB;

People are still asking for ridiculous prices for their modest, middle class homes. If I'm going to pay a million dollars for a house...It better look like a million bucks! I am wondering what it is going to take to be able to buy a decent home in this area for 500 K which I still think is a ridiculous amount of money for a house. There are lots of people here, in the Beach Cities, who don't believe the prices will drop much more. They all believe that most people here make a lot of money, or have a lot of money. I'm not convinced that is the case. I think most of them are way over their heads in debt. I would really like to be right on this. I did move out here from Houston, TX in 2001 so that might be why I am disgusted with the prices here. The housing boom didn't really seem to effect the Houston area. I still visit the area yearly and have tried to keep up with what is going on there with real estate. It is a different animal real estate wise.
