    I wonder…if the house prices are skyrocketing that means no one will buy a house, if no one buys a house that means house prices will go down right…? right…? Like the basic economy taught us

      The boomer die off is coming - when that generation starts to really drop like flies we’ll see millennials offloading property and a likely deflation of the market. The issue right now is that boomers are making so much money off their properties that many of them own multiple homes and a fair few have dozens of rental properties.

      The danger is that corporate landlords start scooping up the estate sales.
