+1 lower is better.

wait a little bit longer, there will be so many homes to choose from and a whole lot cheaper.

The people who bought under ARM's can't afford it now and are now trying to sell off. Two more rate increases will probally be enough to pop the bubble.

It just blows me away how people can consider the last housing boom an economical benefit. It's all borrowed money (refi, home equity loans) from the ridiculous ARM financing.

200% increase in housing cost.
100% increase in fuel

with 5% increase in income if one is lucky.

How is that going to be good. The lenders are ok with it because people only paid interest for the last 4 years. They got their money........... Hey, who un-plug the mic?

end of rant.

shimmy chan save your money and be ready.
