From 1988-1997 prices increased 135% equivelent to 10% compounded increase per annum
From 1997-1999 prices dropped 12% equivelent to 6% drop per annum
From 1999-2010 prices increased 49% equivelent to slightly over 3% compounded increase per annum
No drop during Global Financial Crisis
The price increase we are experiencing now is nothing compared to the price increase seen during the decade before the Asian Financial Crisis.
Even with the continuous 10% compounded increase per annum prior to 1997, our House price index only dropped 12% in 2 years during the AFC.
If the market only dropped 12% during AFC, after massive gains of 10% per annum prior to AFC, do you see our market and economic fundamentals right now being worse than prior to AFC?
At 3% per annum for the past 10 years, our prices still have alot of catching up to do.
That being said, this is just my analysis of the data published by the Government. Other are welcome to share their analysis as well and hopefully we can have intelectual exchanges based on facts and figures.
I certainly do not go out there spreading false rumours. Ironically the one claiming others are making unfounded allagations is also making unfounded allagations of their own.
