Now that's odd. I could swear the value of my home has increased 100 percent SEVERAL times in the years I've owned it. Where did you get the impression that the latest runup in prices (occurring roughly over the past 5-7 years) has never occurred before?

In fact, the value of my father's house has increased 100 percent MANY times in the years he's owned it (since about 1951).

And calm down, the pendulum might swing back for a while. No need to push the panic button.
