It is last in first out in RE. It is the marginal lagging areas which suffer first because nobody wanted to live there in the first place. They moved there because they couldn't afford to live where they really wanted to live. It's like a stock rally moving out to the trash after the good names have been run up. It's the trash that gets hit the worst because you never had a good reason to be there in the first place. The problem with RE is that when it's time to GET OUT completely, you can't. The tax consequences lock people in, that and the lack of liquidity. At least with a stock, someone has to buy it if I decide I want to get out.
