how is it possible for real estate to have doubled, tripled, and eve quadrupled in the last 15 years? why didnt this happen a long time ago? since all of the prices went up so damn fast is it possible for them to ever come back down just as fast? is there really this many rich people who can afford all of these overpriced homes? i just cant seem to comprehend how and why the prices of homes have all of the sudden gotten so much more expensive. it sucks to be a normal guy with a normal job trying to buy a house in most areas of the states right now. is it possible for these prices to stay high or is there a big fall in the future? discuss if you will letsrun.
