RE:"BTW I agree with you the change in the tax treatment of cap gains has little to do with the ridiculous rise in certain real estate markets. It started with people having too much money and too few houses in the areas where they wanted to live."

Yes and they got the will and the money from cashing in on their house with the cap gains exemption of 250/500k. So they said it's time to get up and move.
