Reader Josh Dowlut posed a question recently: "are high or 'strong' real estate prices desirable or not?"
If you expected that homeowners and renters would be on opposite sides of this debate, surprise: More than half the homeowners who took the Wonk poll say high prices aren't good -- just like most of renters. (Renters are less split about it, though: Only a few said high home prices are good.)
All told, 62 percent of folks who took the poll (owners or not) said "feh" to high prices.
Does this match up with your views on home values?
Have the roller-coaster events of the last decade altered your views, by chance?
