the numbers should be adjusted by CPI less shelter

i guess this time around it won't matter so much, since there has been no inflation in "owner's equivalent rent" -g/ng-
as our CI friends put it: "Is it fair to say that NEVER has the headline CPI been less reflective of real US residential housing price inflation?" contraryinvestor.com

btw, it seems over a 6yr period one should NOT strip out food and energy, as per the core CPI (which was remarkably low during that period, according to economagic).

but, i find it hard to locate the historical series on the "non-core" CPI. what the heck is it called, anyway. is "headline CPI" the official name? is there a data series for it?
it seems that the long term RE loss in real terms should be based on this series.

I was a homeowner in S. Cal. then too. I bought in '93, cheap. I tried to sell in '95. My house was on the market for a year without ONE offer. I sold in 2002 for a nice profit in a week.
