Sounds like Texas in the early 1980s.

Where are the banks getting the money ?

I'm in Silicon Valley,with very little residential or commercial building. Offices & light mfg. still way over built, vacancy of 20% - and that's a soft number, with almost any tennant acceptable. Church groups get big space for near free - landlords want some use of the property.

I mentioned before that I sold 4 rental properties a little over a year ago in Windsor Ontario,as it became more and more difficult to collect the rent.
I just got back from a trip to Vegas,where they are building like crazy.There are more than 6,000 new people moving there by the month because there is no state tax.They are having a hard time keeping up with the infrastructure.This is apparently the fastest growing city in the US.
