As for the Picture I'm afraid it would make other peoples computers CRASH Ha Ha !!

The crash in 2007/2008 pretty much wiped out the notion that real estate was guaranteed to appreciate, and it has left a bad taste in a lot of people's mouths.

Midland home prices are higher in 2016 during an oil crash, than in 2012-2014 during the boom.

And when/if I sell, like u say, that is when the tax would go up higher cuz unless US government crashes or banking system totally collapses or i die or something in the next few years, it (market value for me to cash in on someday) can only go UP as i wouldnt sell for anything less than the purchase price (upon which im taxed) plus 100k, minimum.Because of my avid gardening hobby, it was either Santa Barbara, Newport Beach, Sand Diego or Signal Hill (or MEXICO!) 

When the bubble didn't keep expanding, the IRR model crashed and burned.

Do you worry about a market crash?

I am also protected against a market crash, which is the foundational reason one should have a whole life policy because my company is not on the market.      

We lost our first house in the crash and want to make better financial decisions this time around, This is a big opportunity for us and playing things right could really change our lives and the lives of others.

I also took their 1 day in class crash course and passed the CA RE Exam the 1st time.

The next crash won't be due to sub-prime loans as it's pretty hard to get one these days.
