In Japan real estate dropped as much as 80% -- that is a crash. 30% is just a nasty correction, and in real estate you should expect that sort of thing. It is not the end of the world -- not all by itself -- but it of course will expose the underlying pathetic nature of our economy.

"This is like no other time in history. To compare now vs. past real estate cycles is useless. There is no other time in history where our country has been so economically vulnerable and that includes the great depression."

Actually RE now is exactly the same as stocks in the late 1920's but Oct 1929 has not happened yet.
