Ditto 8 Snake--Most demographics are no where's near 8-10 years to recuperate, even with CA, while prices in some areas are plunging, many are stabilizing (trust me, I follow this every day, changing my outlook, again, daily, so don't be a bit surprised if I post a different thought next week
)
Also, you have to consider, Texas RE Broker, what prices are you looking to rebound to? 2005/2006?? Those numbers were by even 2005/2006 economic standards, unsustainable *bubble* numbers...in other words FAKE..so, yeah, we are not looking anywhere to accomplish *these* numbers anytime soon..
...but since we have owned our home for 11 years, didn't borrow equity against our future, we are hoping come 4/09, or thereabouts, the home that WAS fictitiously valued at 750k will settle to a more realistic, and salable value of $550k ish...right now per zillow.com @ 537k, though their numbers, by design, are typically about 2 % off on the low side., put us right about there, give or take.
Also, Texas RE Broker, sounds like you have less experience in real estate, then you do in web design and telemarketing/ internet sourcing techniques..
As with any internet sales, (competing with the "Big Boys" as you said) the flaw of internet/ telecommunication sales, is the lack of grass root, hands on, ground up on the job education that lends to true experience, as opposed to an internet mentality of get rich quick schemes...
..which is why THEY are the Big Boys...
nonetheless, good luck..
