Don't think RE values will come down that much (possibly 20-30% in some areas),but the dollar will sink to make housing values look more realistic. A sinking dollar will make housing values look more realistic and RE will not decline much? You can't be serious. Mish

ref:"the dollar will sink to make housing values look more realistic." Believe me, 99% of Americans see no correlation of housing prices and the dollar. Maybe foreigners will. I don't think we need foreigners coming in and flipping US real estate and leaving some Americans further in the lurch, do we? Some countries protect the basic necessities like housing for their citizens. Those countries that have not are experiencing some real problems right now.
