Yes, and timing seems to be everything. The housing bubble in Japan did not deflate in months like the Nasdaq. It was relatively gradual over 10 years.

Looking at charts of their housing prices, in hindsight it seems to me if you were to try to time it, your best bet would have been to wait until housing had dropped steadily for 1 or 2 years in a row, then get out.
