fell from $21.9 trillion to $17.9 trillion. That's about 18%. (The lost

wealth works out at just over $13,000 for every person in the

Fast Forward to today…Have we hit the bottom of the market yet…?!?!?!?

Where is the bottom of the market?“The effects (of foreclosures) are continued declining

prices….probably another 5-8%* to the bottom. As for the effect of foreclosure pricing, all of these problems are

causing home prices to go lower than is necessary from an affordability perspective.

That’s because everyone is now worrying about job security.

As a result, the recovery will take place at a faster pace once it gets started.”

– Jeff Otteau (otteau.com- January 2009)

Home Improvements

I am moving out of the house, I do not want spend too much money to move.

I just spent $$ on a new kitchen, I want $$$$$$ back on that investment when I move.
