Decade Causes A Better Perspective

We often want to know what is going on and see things from the immediate view, when the longer view or decade view causes a better perspective. The Median selling price for all residences in Orange County roughly doubled the pricing of the 1990's.

The problem is that markets go up and they go down. We tend to think that where they are now is where they will be in the near future. History does not support that thinking. So if we could forget the recent economic down turn we see that we produced housing gains of 105 percent in the decade and an annual growth at 7.5 percent.

The 30 year mortgage adveraged 6.3 percent in the in the decade and 8.1 in the previous decade.
