  1. I found this quote above from the Open House 6 months later thread – do you guys think that’s true – that anyone who buys a property now is immediately under water?

    Yes, because you assume the house will only sell for what you paid for it and you’re out the closing costs.

  2. ENY, given mortgages in US is non-recourse, that home owner walks away from the loan debt free (with respect to that mortgage). In Canada, asia, and many other places around the world, mortgages are recourse loans – ie you own the debt till paid off.

    Right. low sales and whatever sells is with a price cut. I am not sure what makes you think that the market is not collapsing. whoever buys now is immediately underwater.
