That is why these days I still love to invest in property..

It only takes a few months of it tanking and governments, regulators, reserve banks, banks, the construction industry, and so many others all work so hard for action to be taken to protect the market. It happened during the GFC, it's happening now.

People can say its unjust, its unfair (and maybe it is), but at all levels it is so heavily stacked in the property investor's favour in this country. That is for prices to continually rise, and for price falls to be moderated.

With the sharemarket or other form of investment, the thing tanks 20%, then "bad luck".. but with housing, everybody else has your back when the same thing happens.

I'd never viewed it like this - but it does seem this way. A relatively comfortable correction occurring at a time where employment growth is strong and arrears rates remain very low - may be about to have its bottom taken out by regulator intervention. The set up of the financial system in Australia looks to leave allows for a bandwidth for prices to fall (downside protected). Not sure other asset classes have the same luxury.
