Dear Harish,

I agree with Scott and Sally that no one can predict the market. I would recommend researching statistics and drawing your own conclusions. One critical thing when reviewing statistics is to consider the area. Often news reports and financial magazines will say "San Francisco" when they actually mean the Bay Area or the San Francisco Metropolitan Statistical Area, which is very different from just the city proper. For general stats you can visit http://dqnews.com/, and for specific neighborhood reports I provide real time statistics at http://www.sfcondosales.com/condocount. - Wed Mar 26 2008, 19:17
