Thought this article might be off interest to both Home Buyers & Sellers in So. California. It is not a bubble, but a rebalancing back to norm for the Real estate market.

Sales of MRMLS inventory declined for the 3 month to 13.9% lower that 2005 and the average days on the market reached a 4 year high at 48 days. The average sales price increased by 14.3% to $463,279; the rate of increases in home prices in 2005 was in the 23% range.
I bought my home in 2002 for 162.5K and it's worth about 445K this month ... after waiting an average of 48 days on the market

When it triples in value some time about winter this year I'll be tempted to sell it and walk with $330,000 in profit for sitting in the house for four years. ![Big Grin](https://my350z.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)

It's not as easy as it seems or like you just made $330K clean and free of worries. There is more to it then just cashing out. Again, you have nice equity but not something out of the norm these days.

Why cash out and pay more for a house, property taxes, and your mortgage payment? When you move all those things are going to go up. Even if you put all the cash into your new place as a down payment. Because you are going to upgrade so the purchase price would be more like 650,000 or 700,000 so your money is now gone, your mortgage payment is up significantly, and your property taxes went up. The only way for this to make sense is move out of state. You do that and pay cash for a house somewhere then you are making sense. Do not upgrade here it is the worst thing you can do, you will just throw away even more money. Not to mention how much you will lose in real estate fees.
