It seems the 'experts' extrapolate the current trends forward into the future without considering other possibilities. Funny the consensus is this is the end before the next crash. Well you might have a stock market crash especially when the yield curve flattens but this real estate cycle is still in the earlier innings. I can argue that values can go to 11 times gross annual rent and still be affordable to 7% interest rates. Of course some areas are well above that but the majority aren't. And what if rates remain much lower while incomes and rents continue to rise in coming years? With as much slack as there is in the stock market and with industrial capacity ute., this is not the end of the stock market boom.
