The 69% price decline in real estate during the depression took place over a 3 to 4 year period. This is roughly the same period of time required for the post 1989 price decline in Los Angeles, although the price decline was roughly half that of the 1930s.

The duration of the decline would seem to be a function of human psychology, while the size of the decline depends on underlying economics (ie local deflation of demand).
