As a prospective villager, the "entry price" is the key thing. No one can time the market to hit the exact bottom but would prefer to buy lower. After that, it doesn't matter unless you are selling for some reason. I think many of us have to be careful not to purchase too much house in retirement and become "house poor." And like many others, a good chunk of our retirement funds are invested in the stock market. Some days its a Lantana, some days a single-wide. Today, it would be a pup tent and hoping next year is better.
