Re: Housing bubble in Australia

It gave the figure as 0.2% ! As such it would take just under 348 years to double your capital value. That's certainly a long time to wait.

Re: Housing bubble in Australia

But as far as I know, there are no tax breaks that are specific to property :confused: it isn't treated any differently from any other asset class.

So how are taxation laws relevant? you have to...

Re: Housing bubble in Australia

So by your line of thinking, investing in a company that does not pay high dividends is a "loss making investment" ?

I think that there are possibly a few flaws in what you are saying.

Not really sure what this has got to do with your original statement about shanty towns.

There's still plenty of land left that can be covered in concrete... Like you I don't believe that line.

To me, your post is full of flawed logic. Why do you think that the presence of Shanty towns indicates a shortage of housing supply?! Perhaps you should consider some of the other factors at play, I...

Re: Housing bubble in Australia

I reckon its a bit simpler than that...
1) population is growing.
2) inflation.
3) finite supply of land on planet earth.

Re: Housing bubble in Australia

Ok, here's a question.

Some people here think that there is a "housing bubble" that will soon "burst". How exactly will we know that this event is occurring ? how do we quantify it?

Re: Housing bubble in Australia

I think you've gone a little off track now...;)
