Real Estate Live on the Housing "Bubble"

Washington Post Real Estate Editor Maryann Haggerty:

Why don't I start off with a few numbers? As the regulars here know, I have no clue whether there's a housing bubble out there. But I do have a report on my desk, from the National Association of Business Economics, which surveyed a panel of 202 economists.

Of those experts, only 14 percent believe there is a national housing bubble, but 79 percent believe there are major local bubbles in various areas. (But they don't say which ones!) Of those, 83 percent said they would buy a primary residence at today's prices, but just 17 percent would buy investment property.

So let's hear what you have to say!
