Everyday I'm reading articles stating that another recession is coming and a housing collapse is all but a sure thing in the next year or so.

The fast growth is good and the market is strong but you have to watch the market carefully and be ready to exit because the market seems to be following the same patterns as when it collapsed the last time.

I had an ancient sewer main collapse at a home in Tempe and had to trench the entire backyard. 

Don't just say "the Fed is printing money", explain HOW that will = collapse because guess what, the Fed has printed a ton of money, bout a ton of bonds, for a very long time, get informed. 

, doors jam, and even have the roof collapse on that side.

Well I just reviewed the case shiller index going back to World War II.....and the only 10% drop in prices nationally I see is during the the recent financial crisis/housing collapse.  

Hey All,I have a question for everyone who is currently involved and invested in the real estate market.With private lenders becoming increasingly prevalent in this market place, will there higher risk privately securitized mortgage notes cause the same collapse as the previous government backed securities.I see a lot of no income and no doc loans coming back onto the market, is this the writing on the wall that we should all be aware of? 

Who knows what it will be, but it's clear that some of the most valuable office and retail space, which investors have chased up to the top over the past 10 years, may be an anchor around the neck for many personal investors and bigger portfolios.True, housing is showing no signs of an impending collapse. 

TD and BMO are the worst..20k a unit you getting a 1890 built that is ready to collapse..LOL   But I have to say tenants paying with Interac E transfer is a whole lot better and convenient vs the options in the US..

Crypto/gold are insurance.I'm preparing for both scenarios: A slight correction and a collapse.
