Housing Double Dip? Not a Bad Thing.

Why I think the double dip housing economy is not a bad thing: The S&P Case-Shiller Home Price Index showed that 18 of 20 markets in the nation experienced (or came very close to) a double dip.

I don’t think it’s necessarily a bad thing. Why? It gives home buyers a second shot at buying a home at near term historic lows; and that’s in addition to the near historic low interest rates. This is not marketing BS, it’s just statistics. Go research the data to verify.

I wouldn’t be waiting around for a third dip, as I honestly don’t see it happening. As distressed properties gradually get flushed out of the system, it will provide renewed housing price support. So we are at critical crossroads now.

I gave you the knowledge, now go make something of it! ;) And of course, if you’re located here in the San Francisco Bay Area and have additional questions, or want to know where some great deals are to be found, just drop me a line, I’m easy to find.
