At the end of the day, it's all a crapshoot whether housing will go up, stay the same, or come crashing down. I liken it to economists. Half of them will say the economy will face a recession, while half will predict a boom. That way, someone is always right (and they will often let the other half who are wrong know about it).
Here's how I've noticed the general opinion in this thread. People who own real estate tend to have a rosier picture, while people looking to get into the market often take a much more pessimistic view. None of them are wrong, but biases often does affect judgement.
