Huh. I just clicked on the poll results and got COMPLETELY different results than I got yesterday. So now I know the results must start over daily. Here are the results today, based on 66 votes:
July-September 2009: 28%
October-December 2009: 31%
First Half 2010: 19%
Second Half 2010: 19%
So, today, almost 60% of the people polled think the real estate market will hit bottom by the end of the year, while 38% believe it will be 2010, split evenly between the first half and second half of the year. Yesterday, people were much more pessimistic, with 46% believing the real estate market wasn't going to turn around until 2010.
What gives? Why the much rosier outlook today, compared to yesterday? I really don't know. There was some positive economic news, could that be it? If you have a theory, I'd love to hear it.
But, I think I am now tired of this Zillow poll. I am going to retire it, and find something else fun to put there. If I can figure out how to do it......hmmm.....
