Good points, Geoff. Real estate downturns historically lag the markets by 18 months, probably for reason #1 in your discussion, as owners try to mobilize their reserves to avoid foreclosure. So the decline is slower (and RE markets are obvious less liquid than stocks so everything up AND down occurs over longer time frames). I agree that vacation and second homes, especially in resort areas will be among the first affected as debt holders attempt to deleverage.

Nice post.
