I think it would be good for the housing market to sell a house at a realistic price.  Say cost of production plus 10 to 15%.  Honestly, is there a house thats worth 100 to 150 to 200k?  I don't think so.  Not when you consider what is required to pay it off.  The amount of time a person must work to earn that much.
