The guns are now for Real Estate Spruikers...

Hilary used to be a Real Estate Spruiker....

In Australia, we'll just use Salty Water on our Real Estate Spruikers...

This is a sign of what will be coming to Australia soon, I sure wouldn't want to be a Real Estate Spruiker in the near future...
 
Thats your excuse for US, whats the excuse for Canada ? To many Bears and Groundhogs perhaps ?

It ought to come as no surprise that a state originally founded as a penal colony has the greatest police state tendencies out of all the aforementioned...but don't get me started on that in any case.

Bot,

It's even been in the news mate. Ireland's bubble is popping. Sorry.

PS I won't bother looking through archives, I'll just wait for a fresh report and post it.

Do your people read the paper over there ? Just grabbed a copy of the Derry Journal and this is what they had to say on the matter .....



http://www.derryjournal.com/news/ESTATE-AGENT-DESCRIBES-END-OF.3695022.jp

But then again who would trust an estate agent, that Tom chap is probably making that up
 
Relevant to this discussion, how do prices go up if people are pretty much maxed out ? There must be a ceiling on how much even the dumbest bankers will lend to the sheeple ? Inflation and loads of it can be the only way out im thinking .....

Yep, as the global economic problems even out (as water) they wont. We are approaching the classic societal divide of the 3 tier;, the rich, the average and the poor.

As a hedge many of us think gold, oil, food as investements. The upper to very rich will include property, but only the good stuff. I see it happening here where I live on the east to south side of Port Phillip Bay. Suburbs such as Breighton, Sorrento and some parts of Mount Martha/Mornington, some inner city, Armadale and Toorak will never drop off a great deal and in times of inflation, as we are approaching it is a store of wealth also.

These areas and those near to them are the ones that real estate pundits hang their hats on to say property is booming. Ok, it is/it has, is where we are at now IMHO.

Soon however due to costs of food, fuel, interest rates and a drop off in related employment the areas here outside of those I specifically mentioned will fall big time (in my view) and from where I sit it is happening now.
 

It's about time he speaks out in public. The mainstream public never knew he existed in the first place, nor believe in his view on debt and chant, I will laugh at those people saying properties will fall in price!

Further to that .....

About 1.4 million mortgagees will see their fixed-rate loans mature this year, causing their repayments to rocket by an average of £210 a month.

Thats pretty huge, about 500 skippys a month, combined with falling prices, I see some keys being posted back to the bankers !
 
I've just taken a look at the REIV web site and found that in the last quarter of '07 much to my surprise a couple of leafy suburbs in Melbourne have fallen in price. Glen Iris is down -4.8% and Kew -6.6%.

This is only one negative result from one quarter so there's no need to panic but if Kew were to fall again by say -3.4% that would make it -10% for the half year. Now you can't get much of a house in Kew for under a million bucks so if it dropped 10% that would cost the buyer 100 grand, and on top of that one may well be paying interest on a mortgage. Only a small drop in house prices costs big money. In the above scenario pain would be your friend.
 
And Kew is a nice suburb, I lived there years ago in far Kew

Its also one of Melbourne Realestates star performing subrubs, just the beginning is my punt.





Realestate only has to stagnate in current Interest rate enviroment for it to effectively be losing value. House in Kew loses 100k combined with the 100k you would get in bank interest on the purchase price less the 800 a week you could rent it for, adds to serious cash.
