I was just browsing the archives of the Seattle Times real estate section, and found this article from 2000 with headline, "Will the bubble burst?" Though it focuses more on high-end properties (the kind that dot-com millionaires were buying), it asks a lot of the same questions people are asking now.

Another for sale sign went up today on my route home from work (residential Redmond/Bellevue). For those keeping score, that's now 9 houses for sale in 3 miles, not including the new subdivion of McManions being built on spec. And one new "for rent" sign.

I think it is funny how the term retro chic is getting thrown around these days. (As touted in the Bellevue listing above)

Whenever I see that, my mind superimposes frosted turd. Sometimes this silliness convinces me of a bubble more than the data itself.
