How much higher will things go?  Unknown, but as long as the interest rates are lower, and buyers are able to find sources for down payment funds, the end is not in sight according to many market experts.

If a buyer were interested in the average selling price of $350,000 for a house, then San Bernardino County (average at $355,000 in July) and the Inland Empire would be the place to search in Southern California, and Northern California in many counties, excluding the Bay Area, would hold some similar opportunities.
