It's all in where the inflation takes place. The past decade witnessed asset inflation. If the Fed resorts to a dollar devaluation to stop deflation, the primary effect is inflation in imports. It takes more dollars to buy that BMW or Toyota, or those cheapo imported clothes and plastic goods we all consume so much of. Since most RE trades hands without any international influence, there is little direct effect on RE pricing. If anything, a dollar devaluation could pressure RE prices downward in two ways: 1. capital flight could pressure interest rates higher, reducing affordability 2. inflation in imported goods leaves fewer clownbux to chase RE BC
