Compman, I disagree with you to a degree. Where I was the average home price was 160,000, not excessive. If you make $50k and can budget you should be able to afford that, but I guess many buyers had lots of other debt or lower incomes.
It really ticked me off that while us & others were trying to sell our relatively new homes and not getting buyers Ryland was having their crews work full days on Sundays and holidays just to keep putting up houses - even though theirs were not selling either.
Ryland stock - over $80 January of 2006, now at $32. They are getting what they deserve.
