    Yes....either that or multiple years of high inflation and flat house prices.....
    Not sure it's going to be politically acceptable to either/any party to let the price collapse.
    Our financial structure that has let house prices gains enjoy more or less tax free capital gains over the years is coming home to roost.
    Interesting times ahead.
