Boston will not be immune to the bubble that has been created by ultra low rates, easy lending and foreign money infestation. It's already showing evident signs of tanking

I'm not sure what you mean by tanking. Prices in the towns where I suspect
most people here are interested in will probably soften a bit.
How much of a price drop are you predicting?

Tough to guess. I'd suspect 10% min. 20% if all shit hits the fan(another 3 or 4 fed rate hikes, recession, SALT implications, etc). I think we'd be lucky if it were only 10%. Wouldn't doubt it if the market stays flat for a long time too after it adjusts. Economy here is maxed out. Real estate has risen to that peak level. I believe real estate all around the country will reduce. Here less than most. I fear a recession after that could keep the market sideways for a prolonged period.

National Association of Realtors is in Boston for 1st time in 89 years, last was 1929 -- ominous, right?

Economic Forecast one of sessions in AM. Follow #NARannual on tweets.

Their chief economic has flagged this coming date with demographic destiny in the past, will see what he says tomorrow:

How high do you think the rates will go? This is my biggest area of concern as I'm on a variable rate.

Why not lock in now? I don't know how high they might go, but the historical average is still much higher than where rates are now.
