Prices, unit sales, and building activity in the Southern
California residential real estate market are skyrocketing. Locally, everyone is buying, selling,
remodeling, refinancing, or regretting not investing in the first place. In the bigger picture,
bond prices are falling, and the Fed has declared the risk of deflation gone. Yet, real estate
professionals all over the country continue to invest in Southern California properties. Join us for a realistic and practical presentation of the real estate situation here in Southern California from the UCLA Anderson Forecast economists, along with an insightful discussion with other economists, financial experts, and real estate professionals. |
