    Yo! Candy… since you are a realtor, you should also point out that all is not rosy.

    The numbers you link to do not point out that Dallas is down 0.1% this Oct vs a year ago. Sure, we are up over the year, but we ARE trending down. And, now that people can’t refi and pull money out to pay credit card balances, because their houses are not rising any more, can you say “reality check in ‘08?”

    Start practicing.

    Bill, I’m not a Realtor — yet! But you have made some very good points which I will post. That’s the whole point of this forum — to get out the information!

    PS: I never thought home equity was a great idea.
