In his first book, “The Great Housing Bubble,” Roberts contends that a combination of loose lending standards and irrational exuberance on the part of borrowers created a “herd mentality” that drove prices beyond any reasonable valuation measure. He provides detailed information on the phenomenon of irrational exuberance, the mechanics of lending, the proper valuation of residential real estate, the role of psychology in housing markets, predictions for how the bubble will deflate and more. Roberts believes the pain and anguish caused by the foreclosures and bankruptcies resulting from the deflation of the housing bubble was an avoidable occurrence – if the housing bubble had not been permitted to inflate.

Roberts proposes a series of changes to our current system of appraisal, lending and sales of residential real estate. He suggests realtors be subject to oversight by the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding the false statements they routinely make concerning the investment potential of residential real estate.
