Maybe it represents the early stages of massive flight from the dollar


In a sense buying leveraged real estate is a short position on the US dollar.


Grace can you elaborate a bit on this?
Is it correct to interpret that a decrease in US dollar will result in increased house price and hence investing in a leveraged real estate is a hedge against the US dollar?

Given the current sky high appreciation of real estate, is your point still valid? Does this mean that there is going to be further upward trend?

Thanks,
-Nat
