These banks are smart as hell to avoid lending in this environment. Home prices here in dade fell what, 20 percent last year? They are expected to do the same this year too. Hell, I wouldnt buy next year either. This market still has a home surplus of what, 4 years? This place should be avoided at all costs right now as prices are guaranteed to drop. I wouldnt touch this market till prices are nearing 2000 levels. 140k was the median in 2000, 160k in 2001,185k in 2002, 225k in 2003, 275k in 2004, 350k in 2005, 375k in 2006, 272k in 2007. This place went fucking nuts man! Miami has one of the lowest pay rates in the country. These immigrants cant afford this place and I love the implosion. Those kind of increases without corelating increases in salary should of been a big alert to everyone.

I’m with you and that’s the point. The environment & trend you described is taking place throughout the majority of the country at varying levels. It’s not a Dade or Florida issue. It’s a national issue by & large.
