Bev,
I think the bubble mainly applies to people buying or
selling houses now.
I think this is not a good time to buy a house at all,
If the bubble does burst housing prices are likely to
go down.
For someone who has a house to sell it might be a good
idea to get it sold before things go down. I lucked
out because I needed to sell houses last winter and I
think I caught the top of the market.
As for as having to sell at some point I think you can
only hope that if that happens it will be in a good
sellers market.
The only way a housing bubble should matter to someone
who is planning to stay put would be if you are in the
middle of a "hot" market that might make you want to
sell but only if you have less expensive property to
buy.
