Oh, OK, sorry I misread the following as supporting evidence for what you were saying:
__________

<<Funny thing. My brother has an interest only mortgage and thinks everything is fine. He reasons that, although Michigan home prices are declining, his neighborhood will be spared. And although his neighborhood is declining, it's temporary because of certain ongoing construction and their home prices will rise again starting in 1-1.5 years.

My father, who lives a half hour away, believes that his house won't fall in value because it's near a lake. (That's right, not on a lake, just near a lake.) Even though the next town over had a Ford plant shut down, and even though he follows the papers and knows how things are crashing Michigan-wide and nationally.>>
