ild, here's a real estate fund manager's impression on the current housing market. He sees a "loud pop" coming in overheated coastal markets, but not much change in the heartland. He also sees price appreciation ahead in hotel, office and apartment REITs.

He further opines that a pop in the housing bubble will not lead to the overall economic effects that many bears point to, instead stating "borrowing against home equity has been overrated as a source of economic stimulus" and "the only real threat to the economy is an overly aggressive Fed, and not a downturn in the housing market, which won't by itself push the economy down."
