If you look at the globe as a big pressurized steam system..
With huge boilers in the US and China etc..
And the central banks throwing piles of underpriced money into those boilers...
and that pressure blowing itself off as house prices...
And then the boiler pressure drops, for the first time in decades..
"Ya canna mess with the laws of physics captain".

Here's why it might be fruitless to pin your hopes on a house price crash
09 Nov 2021
Originally posted by STUFFedJust how unsustainable are New Zealand house prices, really? The Reserve Bank warned (again) in its latest financial stability report that house prices were unsustainable, and highlighted the potential risk to first-home buyers.
But – for now at least – every warning seems to be followed by another month of record-breaking house prices. Nationally, the Real Estate Institute house price index increased by more than 30 per cent year-on-year in September.

Just need the borders open again.
NZ is still an attractive place to live too and when National gets back in hopefully it will attract more investment in business.
Including working with primary materials and turning them into secondary goods eg building supplies etc.

Yet another big yawn?
Can't last forever? Some things can.
Political lies don't 'last,' but will continue to be spouted until the end of time.
House price crash warning: 'It's impossible to save people from their mistakes forever'
4 Nov 2021
Originally posted by STUFFedThere will be a “day of reckoning” for people who have borrowed too much, or invested in things without understanding the risks involved, a top economist is warning.
The Reserve Bank issued its latest financial stability report on Wednesday, which highlighted its concerns about “unsustainable” house prices. It said there was a heightened risk of correction in the market.
“The further house prices rise above their sustainable level, the larger the realignment could be.” The Reserve Bank said the number of factors that pointed to a drop in house prices was growing.

Breaching caps means loss of the HomeStart grant.
Accordingly, headlines now read that new builds are "absolutely not recommended" for first-home buyers.

It's those nasty "speculators' again.
More taxes, bans and red tape - that'll fix it.

Comrade commissar Cindy's socio-commie gummint does not like bad news. Not at all.
Anything remotely like it will always be portrayed as someone else's fault for not being a suitably compliant collaborateur.

Some bad news for the W'gton comrade commissariat with a hint of a prediction thrown in.

Doesn't matter how many times it happens or how many times they're reminded that they'll always get it wrong, the consequences of their socio-commie stupidity keep falling down all around them.

House prices, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said, cannot keep increasing at the rate they are.
A bit like paraphrasing Grant RobUsome and his famous fudge line about being 'overly specific' (code-speak for lying), comrade commissar Cindy could say that she was 'underly specific' in that her statement didn't exclude the house price rate of increase getting greater?

And - as anyone with half a brain knows* - if new build costs increase, so does the price of the existing stock. And vica-versa.
* Socio-commie W'gton woodenheads excluded.

House prices reflect in part building and material costs. Lots of new builds happening at the moment (which is good) but many are being re-priced upwards to reflect increased costs. What are those increased costs? According to one recent article:
Shortages of materials and skyrocketing costs, particularly in the last few months, meant the price of building or renovating homes would continue to increase. Local builders reported that brickwork costs had gone up 20 per cent in two months, cedar cladding rose 50 per cent in three months, steel was up 60 per cent in eight months, and everything that was imported was costing more.
