Sell Now!: The End of the Housing Bubble

Talbott's latest effort in warning of the coming housing crash bluntly advises owners to liquidate in a hurry. Raising the stakes from his previous best-seller (The Coming Crash in the Housing Market), Talbott argues housing prices will plummet by as much as 50 percent over the next five to seven years, a hit that will be felt on an international level and cascade into larger economic problems: more job losses and a weaker banking infrastructure. As a guide for the average homeowner, this book is a convincing argument broken down into laymen's terms, albeit one fueled by bias: Talbott admits he, ""allowed his anger and bitterness,"" to influence his writing, making it less a studied survey than a ""creative analysis,"" as Talbott terms it.
