I've been noticing that too. I wonder if it will fuel a hyper mania, or put on the brakes? It would work out best for me if I could sell the house I'm currently in during the mania, so I'm pulling for it to continue. If it doesn't, I may be living in Salt Lake City for a long time. Albeit with no debt and a paid off house I've fixed up.

RE:"Don't know if anyone else saw the network news on ABC and NBC last night but they had a segment on day trading investment properties. They had on a guy from South Flordia who was average a holding period of no more than one week. He stated that he had also flipped a number of properties within hours in two separate closings. It's getting more and more visibility on the news since last year." You'd think the FED, the Congress, whomever would have learned about bubbles after the dot.com fiasco. Now it's housing, the fabric of American life. Hard to believe they would let this happen.
