But you, like me, have never seen 18% interest rates on properties we own.

Ask anyone owing a house during the 9o's how it was///

And I edited before (or during) your post.

Tripping? that was so 1990's.
i agree, WE havent seen 18% interest rates. what state are you in?

5. People dont want to mow acres of land. By the time you finish mowing you need to start over again
6. Populations are higher near coasts, more opportunities and networks, more opportunity to communicate with people.
7. Our immigration policies let in people with cash behind them. They want to live in capital cities and pay for good properties. They contribute to driving up prices.

More ridiculous assumptions..

If your a true home owner you wouldnt be debating if property prices have skyrocketed. Its a fact that prices have skyrocketed.

You didnt buy in timbucktu did you? Even if you did it, it went up too.

That was terrible for home owners, i recall those days, was only good for deposit savers with generous interest of 15 to 16% returns . but for home owners ouch!!!

In history-its never gone down!
I agree there has been slumps in the market, but as an overall Property is the best investment most will see.
