I just can't see home prices falling by so much (more) ... I think that we would see something like "Cash For Fixer-Uppers!," before the new administration knowingly lets home prices fall by any more than another 25%....
Although I do worry that *if* home prices were to fall more than another 25% (using the Case-Shiller index), there would almost certainly be another really nasty worsening of the financial crisis, and thus another sharp leg down in GDP - which could then become a completely out-of-control spiral.
But I think that the odds of that have now fallen, and are probably less than 33%.
