Your dreaming, within three months nobody in Australia will be able to get a mortgage without 20% down.

Aussie Real Estate Boom is over boys and girls. Better hold onto your hats, because this bust is going to be a humdinger...
 
Shhhhhhh they dont know it yet, mums the word.

I can't see what's wrong with that, or why that would contribute to a bust in RE. It might merely slightly change the demografics of who can and who can't buy RE, but with the current affordability problem I can't see that 20% down changes anything at all.

'Owning a home is a privalege not a right' anywhere else in the world. Its when those who can't afford a home starting thinking they should buy one that you start having sub-prime market type failures causing everyone else to lose their a$$ as well.

Sorry, but these wierd ideas that spring up in various colonies about poor people buying houses is getting to be a bit of a pain. - rent instead. rent is good: it doesnt get you into trouble and it pays off mortgages for people who can get loans and who can guarantee loans, and all goes well with the economy after that .... - rent boom ...

Markets that belong to the affluent usually hum along better anyway don't they? They also tend to become even more expensive and more affluent as markets, once the rich get more greedy. Lack of affordability hasn't stopped global RE prices - look at Europe! No-one talks about "affordability" gees ....

roll on RE boom!

What people fail to understand is that the real estate industry needs new entrants/suckers to enter the market so that those already in the market can climb up the next rung.

Now to go to the next rung, you need to to borrow more money, but if the supply of money dries up the whole ponzi scheme starts freezing up.

The next thing that happens is the rungs on the property ladder start popping out caused by low lending standards and increasing interest rates which leads to mass foreclosures and defaults.

Bubbles feed on themselves going up, and the feed on themselves going down. I still think once the fat lady finishes singing, Aussie Housing prices are going to go back to 2003 levels..
 
I can see it now on telly, Instead of the plethora of Realestate millionaire stories theres going to be thousands of hard luck stories on How the Government is to blame for misleading on interest rates etc etc etc ....

robots, property is an asset class like any other - its value is determined by the value of its future income streams. Median property prices are at all time high multiples of median incomes, and rental yields near historic lows. Good luck bargain hunting.
 

The future for anyone who listens to Robots...

Why are you here if you view the share market with disdain?

I think you're the Oz version of the infamous Bruno Powroznik
 
hello,

when have I shown disdain for shares?, I have shares and follow those posts and post for those as well

I found this thread gave out commentary that is not right,

many are saying property has gone nowhere since 03/04, then they say it is going to drop to 03 prices, but hasnt it gone nowhere?

you show me one post where I have said RE is going to boom, I have continually stated the good property is solid as, and you are in denial if you think this is not the case

thankyou

Did you watch Bruno?

BTW, I predict you won't be posting here by the end of '08
 
I have removed the link to Bruno's youtubes. He has gone over the top and putting up some truly revolting stuff which I had not realized.

The intention was to show Bruno's real estate videos.

Apologies for any offense.

And you accuse others of denial? Look around you, there is a credit crunch happening. As I said well back in this thread. HPI is all about loose credit. Things will change when credit tightens.

It is tightening.

Happy investing.
