Real-estate is the only safe game in town.

Real-estate is the only safe game in town.You've got that right. With the power of leverage one could have made 20 times on their money over the past three years. My properties pretty much doubled in value. Well, up 80% actually. Although, real estate is cyclical like all other investments. It will probably be flat for quite a few years after the big run-up. Won't drop like stocks do though. (Yes, you might be able to point out two examples in the U.S. where that has happened but I'm talking in general.)

Isn't that what everyone thought about the stock-market a few years back?

Everyone felt the same way about Nasdaq stocks in 1999.

It's more than that, but I had predicted for some time that we would see a housing boom based on the HORRIBLE weather in the midwest and east for Jan-Feb.
