merttan is on a distinguished road
When I came the US for college, I had an option to buy a house... All I said was, the prices are blown by sellers... That was 8 years ago... And I'm still waiting... And saving... And waiting... What do you think big real estate companies are waiting for? The big crash, none of them seem to be interested in chipping in for the crisis...
Once everything hits the bottom which surely will, because this country became a spender not a builder in last 3 decades; then I'll buy a house at its worth...
Meanwhile, don't expect much from the government because it is in deficit itself... And to save people, make unemployment payments tighter! But make the companies that fire people when they are benefiting pay them! There are millions on welfare who can work but yet choose not to...
