Housing Market News, Links

Archived in Investing, Links, Real Estate |

I wanted to let the readers know that I found a great site with lots of information about what’s going on in the USA regarding the housing market. The site is run exclusively to provide information on REAL ESTATE news and related information.

There is a whole section devoted to Housing Bubble News, that I know we cover only superficially here.

We have compiled expert opinions, data sets, and newsworthy topics to provide unbiased information for you to form your own ideas about the housing market. Our articles are updated daily with fresh breaking news, so please check back often.

The article that specifically caught my eye on this particular site was a detailed comparison and analysis of the American housing market to that in Japan in the 1980s — and specifically the disconnect between REAL ESTATE and the rest of the economy.

Prices have grown so much in the last decade that they are now completely disconnected from the fundamentals that have historically ruled the REAL ESTATE market. Today’s prices are not sustainable and the graphs and analysis below demonstrate why.

Click here to check out the full article. It’s fairly clear and easy to read, and has lots of graphs with details on trends and predictions.
