Default Re: Real Estate Prices with excess supply

Newport Beach $40K houses from the early 70's are now about $2 Mil

(when I came to Calif in '73 the houses were about the same prices as those in the Chicago burbs - five years later they were 10 times higher!)

Houses in Fla in 2003, 2004 and 2005 were going up at a rate of nearly 50% per year - that's why we bought in early 2004 even tho we aren't going to use it much until 2009.
