Like you have mentioned, Lexington has seen increased growth consistently over the years (I believe since the 1800's and even during the financial collapse).

As others remarked, this banking system will eventually collapse.

Our second flip - 30 ft of the foundation had collapsed in and the house was caving in on itself.

I have a rental townhouse in Brooklyn, the abandoned neighboring building has been deemed by the city as a building that can potentially collapse.

I've lived through two of them and prospered greatly in the first-oil market collapse in the '80s, and survived handily during the second-investment banker's scam of the 2000s.The first time I paid cash I noticed the first benefit at closing when I looked at the HUD-1.

We used a general handyman to replace a damaged section of drop ceiling in the basement of our rental and it's already collapsing (just 8 months later)....

Each time, society convinces itself that the current boom, unlike the many booms that preceded catastrophic collapses in the past, is built on sound fundamentals, structural reforms, technological innovation, and good policy"

I bought a lot of foreclosed property after the collapse and my guess is that in every one of them the investors in the previous syndication had a 100% loss.

What becomes interesting to me is when you apply the same trends of the market collapse to commercial investors, specifically the SFR and small MF markets that are selling for 50-100% more than just a short time ago.
