Like most things we tend to believe what is now will always be so. It is like a perfect storm. Skilled labor shortage, low mortgage interest etc and high tax incentives. Any can change. Real estate and the stock market always go up-except when they don't. We bought in the villages 9 years ago and of course on paper our home is worth more than we paid. Reality, assuming I am still alive, I will need to live somewhere and that too wherever or whatever will also cost more.
