Hi, I think North East area is already experiencing a slight decrease in housing price since mid- last year. Some of real estate brokers' data in new york city suggests apartment prices hit peak in the second quarter last year although OFHEO HPI did not show such trend yet. Most of the recent hike in housing price appeared in the areas like Hawaii, Las Vegas, Florida, Phoenix and Orange County. I think it highly dependent on speculative investment mainly by high income people and foreign investors. This move may soon collapse. Iwao > >The bubble may have popped in SF but not nationally.
