    Hey Team,

    Has anyone else wanted to read a book that give a full break down of the history of Australian Property, one that explains the macro and mirco economics throughout the ages and what the results have been. Does such a book exist? I would love to read up on that, so when the doomsday people call, then you can look at the history and laugh in their faces!

    I do not know of any such book. The best you could probably do is see if you can track down Dr Nigel Stapledon's PhD paper on Australian house prices.

    Australia's Home by Robin Boyd. Well and truly out of print but covers up to the 60's - 70's.

    I didn't say I read them! I would rather read something more interesting.
