If you want to buy at some point, just don't wait until you hear people saying real estate is a lousy investment and they wouldn't even have some if it were free. By that time, the investors will have run over your opportunities with a fleet of 18-wheelers. <<GG>>

JQP based on the premise that the greatest impact of foreclosures won't even hit the market till late next year(EOY 08 through 09), why do you think 08/09 will be the best time to buy? Where will the buyers come from to absorb the current record inventory much less the onslaught of foreclosed inventory yet to come? Personally, i see at least 2010 to 2012 as the target for a bottom. That is all based on something worse (like China dumping the dollar or accelerating wars based on oil, etc.) expanding the world wide turmoil NOT happening.
