"Financial planners agree that houses will continue to be a poor investment."
– Kiplinger’s Personal Financial Magazine, 1993
"We’re starting to go back to the time when you bought a home not for its potential money-making abilities, but rather as a nesting spot."
– Los Angeles Times, 1993 (Note: 1993 was the absolute low-point for real estate values in Los Angeles. Priced have sky-rocketed since.)
