A fall in RE pricing could only happen (at least here in SO CAL) if the banks decided to all of a sudden release verything they have and flood the market. I just don't see that happening. As stupid as they are sometimes, I find it hard to believe they would shoot themselves in the foot.

Is this the start of yet another spike which comes just before a fall? Reference the chart for June 09, Sept 08, and Feb 08. If so how could they fall much further?

Especially in the CA market, where prices are higher (although much mor eaffordable these days) and a 1/4 point actually accounts for something.

Not for investors but it certainly should for homebuyers with a 30 year fixed!

Yes, psychologically we like to lock in at the very lowest rate, but .25% doesn't make that much difference, or at least it shouldn't for investors.

Still at very low rates, just another of many reasons why you hsould be a buyer right now.
