For those of you who sold their Irvine homes between 2007 - 2009 (IHO, Trojan, IPO etc.) hoping to buy back a lower price point. Any regrets at this point for selling when you did? Can you get more for your home if you were to sell today? I believe that 99% of us on IHB back in 2007 thought that prices would correct by 40% to $421,000 due to fundamentals, but most of us underestimated the purchasing power of the Chinese and Koreans buyers.
The conclusion is that 99% of the so called IHB experts were all wrong in predicting where Irvine home prices would end up. You know who was correct ??... there was a very nice Irvine REMAX agent named Linda Spears whom I met in 2007 who told me that home prices in Irvine will correct 15-20% at the most from the peak while the rest of OC would correct more and I laughed at her. She would of been also laughed at by all the so called experts from IHB. Today, she couldn't have been more right... and the so called IHB experts couldn't have been more wrong.
