Yes, you are probably right... but we had one client just pay $2.5M for a house that came down from a construction cost of $4.2M in 2006-2007. They put $1M and financed 1.5M at 5.2%

maybe it sheds another 30%, but there is the perception that current prices represent a value and that rates represent an opportunity, so we have price strength and a rebound in demand in that market segment for the first time in 3 years

How durable this rebound is may be another matter

I think eurozone woes send "safe haven" money to the USA and cause a blowoff top in treasury bonds, then the rug gets pulled here

I think TBT and RRPIX will be the way to play this
