Do you know about housing, slowdowns, ETC???

Houses don't appreciate at +20% a year as they have been. What comes up will come down. Sacramento has been one of the most over exposed housing markets in the nation. Top 10 at least, your house value has NOTHING to do with the Kings and more to do with the economy and this area. The value of your home has probably increased double from 4 years ago. So while its down 50k from 12 months ago its not really down. Housing typically is not a short term investment.

BTW with the exception of a few states, you can pretty much move anywhere and find larger, cheaper homes. People live in CA for a reason... if you hate it here leave. Thats my take.

I apoligize for the misunderstand. I agree with what you said above and never based my reasoning on the Kings about the housing market. It's been pretty bad not only here, but most other states as well. As far as I'm aware, the housing market has not slowed as much in Albuquerque and Austin where the economy is booming. Also, Have you guys looked into Reno, NV, just check out: http://www.downtownmakeover.com/
