Although talk of another real estate pricing bubble poised to burst is premature,
pundits are nevertheless beginning to point toward the common markers that
caused the last housing market downturn. As prices continue to rise while wages
don't rise as quickly, a new situation could be an eventuality. Yet today's market is
quite different than the last recession. The economy is growing, lending practices
are more in line with economic fundamentals and inventory appears to be improving
in many markets, which would help alleviate price pressure.
