We bought in April of 2000 and they just started to go up a tiny bit.

a friend of mine bought her home in west babylon 4 years ago for about 180K, and a year ago it appraised for over 400K. so im going to say within the 2000-2003 range.

They started to seriously shoot up in mid-late 2001.

I'd say right at the end of 2002 beginning of 2003.
DH and I definitely got our house just before the insane boom. We bought in Feb 2003

I totally know how you feel. Though I was in my late twenties when the boom hit, I so was not ready for a house. Now I am. It will get better for us; maybe we will win the lottery or something.
