Linda L | Are home prices ridiculous? |
I don't understand why there are homes on the market that are ghetto shacks being sold for over $300,000. Does anyone else think that people are getting greedy over real estate and can you actually afford a home?
I can where I live now but if I ever wanted to move someplace else, looks like I'm out of luck. |

Yah...in CA the house prices are too high. It's because people want to live here and the human population keeps growing.... |

Its a matter of supply and demand. The market can ask any price it wants but the offers and acceptances are subject to best offers. The houses are going to come down drastically as people lose out to foreclosures being put into homes they cannot afford. Stay where you're at but keep your eyes and ears on the foreclosure listings. You might be in the right place at the right time. |

In the South home prices are still reasonable. I guess when property has been sold through generations no one wants to take a loss....thus up up and away they go......lol

Over thirty years in the real estate business has taught me the old adage that the only thing that matters in real estate is location,location,loction.
No matter where you live if you want to be where everyone else wants to be you will pay a premium.
Look for areas at the edge of the "hot" areas but are in the direction that popularity is moving. I have seen neighborhoods that are only a mile or two from the hot areas that sell for 20 to 30 percent less. Get in the path of progress and you stand to get a better deal today and big profits tommorow. |

It really depends on where you're looking to buy. A 2000 square foot house in San Diego, CA. will go for anywhere from $300K and up. The same house in Indianapolis can be purchased from about $90K and higher, depending on the neighborhood. |

I don't think it is greed. It is supply and demand. If people are willing to pay $300,000 for a ghetto shack, that is the price.
I often have people complaining about sellers that bought their house for $50,000 in 2000, that are asking $150,000 now, and don't understand it. Others are getting $150,000 for similar properties. It is really of no consequence when they bought it and how much they paid for it. Should they sell it for $50,000 because that is what they paid? No, the value has appreciated, and that is the price. |

Fortunately, real estate prices are governed by supply-and-demand forces. And, also fortunately, the vast majority of current owners own only 1, 2 or 3 properties, so that there is little chance of collusion or other manipulations of the market. Therefore, with so many independent minds holding the real estate, each with their own needs and motivations, we can't speak of them collectively to be able to generalize that they are "greedy" or anything else.
These owners are very important, of course, because they own all the properties. But you, as a potential buyer, are important, too. Some owner out there needs to sell.
Just because somebody was capable of buying property once doesn't mean they are wise to keep holding onto that property. Is this a good time to buy or to sell? There are fundamental conditions and popular perceptions in the market that will cause prices to stay steady or rise or fall. Study these forces and you will have a better sense of whether today's prices are attractive (going to climb) or 'ridiculous' (going to fall). You can be successful at this!
To help with the affordability part of your question, lower your payments without taking on dangerous loan terms by seeking national (U.S.) and/or community-subsidized terms for first-time buyers. |

Well, to be honest .... That's Life!
Everything goes up, and it's not going down. Bread used to be a nickel a loaf, now it's as high as $3 and $4. Gas was 25 cents a gallon. Everything goes up.
People were saying the same thing you are saying back in the '80's, '70's, '60', ...... '20's. Same pattern, over and over. Home values go up over time, people complain about it, yet nothing changes.
It's a sad fact, but you are right, many people can't afford to simply own a home anymore. Regular, good, hard-working people are being driven to the bad part and to the country side in most areas. City and suburb living is getting too expensive, so many people are starting to take interest in small town living again.
Best of luck to all on their home search.

No. You can become a real estatist and sell homes for $1 yourself. Sometimes it's not only the house you're buying, it's the neighborhood, the people, the conviences (mall nearby, schools nearby, job is close). A lot more than just a home goes into selling a home. And if it looks like a "ghetto shack" but it's in a great location, it's going to go for a lot. You can always upholster homes. That's a common misconception Americans have; just because you buy a "ghetto shack" doesn't mean it has to stay that way. |
