Right...so based on all these things seemingly turning into a "perfect storm" scenario...is it time to pay off debt?
Should we halt on accumulation and pay down debt fast and begin purchasing again once we are on the other side of this thing?

Finally, the simple fact is that, outside a few expensive areas like LA and New York, you can buy a really beautiful house in a nice neighbourhood a lot cheaper than you can in Australia. That's just the truth. There's no catch. The reason is twofold. economy of scale; and in many places, far more relaxed planning regulations.
because comparitive wages are lower and there's a glut of property.
you can buy cheap, but don't expect it to "not be cheap" one day while owning it.

ps , actually friends are at the poker tournament this week , runs 10 days . When they get back I'll ask them how things are looking there right now . They enter every year and do the whole 10 days so they'll be bloody good indicators .
No probs for me, I'm retired.
But Mrs Fish wouldn't go so I'm talking through my hat really. I don't want to live under a communist regime here. I don't like the American system either but I could remain detached from it, I think.
