Overheating Property Market

Hi,
IMHO, the recent stock mkt rally is way too high and
property prices have adjusted upwards too fast.
Most D9 have gone up from 1100psf to 1500psf or higher.
I am thinking there will be a correction soon and prices will stabilize again.
Thoughts?

Been watching it for 26 years. Same - same. Up & down. Nothing new.

I went to view units downtown today... the frenzy is over.
Developments are no longer swarming with buyers.

Am glad there are advice from veteran of 26 yrs' experience and one who personally goes down to developments to feel the market.
The recent pent-up sales volume is in the cheap mass market launch. As some economists and industry veterans commented recently 'since when in history did a success in one
property segment indicate a success in all segments?'.
Apparently though, some subsale and resale sellers of higher end properties are taking this blurry image of sudden volume-up to price their way up to the ridiculous peak time 2007's level. Unlike 2007, this is a time of turbulent economic climate. Not a time of bliss and rapid growth. Buyers and investors who have been following closely are not myopic. It'll scare them off. So, there goes again... a correction.
