I heard the same thing about Tokyo land prices 10 years ago.

BTW, another function of real estate appreciation is LEVERAGE and the latest ownership/equity stats show that actual ownership is at its lowest level EVER.

Just like the stock market - too much funny money (3-5% down payments and costant home equity loans) has created a Ponzi Scheme with the backing of Fannie Mae and friends.

When the bubble pops (I think it has peaked), liquidity will be the obstacle.
