An interesting article by Calculated Risk arguing the housing price bottom is here:
"There are several reasons I think that house prices are close to a bottom. First prices are close to normal looking at the price-to-rent ratio and real prices (especially if prices fall another 4% to 5% NSA between the November Case-Shiller report and the March report). Second the large decline in listed inventory means less downward pressure on house prices, and third, I think that several policy initiatives will lessen the pressure from distressed sales (the probable mortgage
settlement, the HARP refinance program, and more)."
Take a look..what do you think?

I agree with you...actually think it arrived last November.
