if the markets continue to fall more, i think it will eventually affect the property markets - in a very theoretical sense, when markets drop, people either lose money in the markets or wanting to get in more (so they need cash) - then they will try to force sell the property - forcing prices to fall....etc

property bubble will only happen if those who bought the properties cannot afford to repay the loans, leading to massive firesales - depressing prices; looking at the current situation where debt-to-income ratio, the possibility cannot be totally eliminated (further backed by the current spending patterns of individuals - which cannot be compared to the people of the past - who were more nimble of their spending, and have large savings)

i am expecting a correction in the property market, especially under the sub-sales market, where prices are pushed too high....  probably, next year or so, could be a better time to look into property again (if you already have a place to stay now)

QUOTE(tchtax @ Sep 21 2011, 01:40 PM) People will only throw properties if there's massive unemployment ala Greece and US. Last year , 80,000 business closed shop in Greece. If they don;t turn it around, they expect 180,000 businesses to go bust in the coming year. Could be another Zimbabwe in the making. people will also "throw" the property when they are really in need of money - emergencies; if they do so by lowering the property prices, then others could be panic and follow suit....this is when it leads to property prices adjustment
