    These are the countries where a housing price correction is coming

    London | Canada and New Zealand are the most vulnerable to a house price correction given both the price-income ratio and the price-rent ratio are well above their long-run averages, according to Bloomberg Economics.

    Policy makers may already be acting given Canada's government has introduced a tax on foreign buyers, and overseas purchases have been banned in New Zealand.

    Canada and New Zealand are the outliers. Bloomberg

    Still, the next challenge will be whether global house prices rise as central banks get ready to lower interest rates, as the Federal Reserve is set to cut rates for the first time in more than a decade on Wednesday.

    Your talking about specific cities not the average market prices in the country as a whole. Big difference.

    Hahaha not sure if your joking or not. It is officially defined as an “autonomous” territory. The quotations are because it’s really not as autonomomous as China would like the world to believe.

    I am currently in Denmark and house prices seem to be really high in a bunch of places, taking into account the FX rates.
