44th most prolific poster on APF

There is not a week that passes where somebody does not start a Macrobusiness related thread on APF. I thought this website is to discuss issues relating to Australian property. What gives?
Common sense is a curse - those who have it need to suffer dealing with those who don't have it.

yes, I have often said that the few times i visit many of the 'bear forums' or 'bear blogs' is when one of the bulls comes on here ranting and raving about them.

Usually I don't bother... funny really.
Shadow - Defrauded his Bank ? 2015 I have 9 different loans and my bank had no idea which ones were personal and which were investment. They had half of them classed incorrectly. When this change came in they asked me to tell them if any personal loans were incorrectly classed as investment, which I did, and they switched them to personal for the lower rate. They also had a couple of investment loans incorrectly classed as personal. They didn't ask me about those. So they stay on the lower rate too. Worked out pretty well. :)
Shadow - 2008 Sydney Median House Price 1.25M by 2014-2015

Shadow : I think this boom has already begun in several cities. My prediction :
Peak of boom: 2014-2015. Sydney Median Price: $1,250,000 Bottom of bust: 2017-2018. Sydney Median Price: $1,100,000

Macrobusiness bloggers frequently discuss issues relating to Australian property.

However their articles and analysis are often one-sided, misleading or factually incorrect.

Non-bears, such as myself and Strindberg, were banned from Macrobusiness for pointing out their many errors.

Since we're not allowed to point out their errors on their own blog, we do it here, where non-bears are allowed to post just as freely as bears. I prefer sites like this... sites that don't censor alternative views. Sure, the bears may be in the majority on APF, but at least the bulls here aren't banned or censored, as happens on sites like Macrobusiness, Credit Crunch, Simple&Sustainable, GHPC, Bubblepedia etc.

In any case, I don't think there are that many threads here discussing Macrobusiness topics. I reckon there are just as many (if not more) threads discussing topics from Money Morning, Debtwatch, Business Spectator, Property Observer, Chris Joye's blog and many others...

2. Residential property loans regulated by NCCP Act. Banks can't margin call unless borrower defaults.
3. Housing is second highest taxed sector of Australian Economy. Renters subsidised by highly taxed homeowners.
4. Ongoing improvement in housing affordability. Australian household formation faster than population growth since 1960s.

You are strindberg are real estate lobbyists or certainly employed within the real estate business.

Take your complaints about Macrobusiness, to Macrobusiness. You've set up enough sleeper accounts here, so I'm sure you wont find it too difficult to set up new account there.

The rest of us consider your rantings on this subject tiresome, obsessive and bordering on deranged

I think it's a bit weird as well.

I've never visited that other site and don't care what they say over there.

Can't speak for Strindberg, but I am almost certainly a paid troll bankrolled by the real estate vested interests to astroturf on blogs and forums.

I can't complain on MB as I've been banned. I don't have any 'sleeper accounts' here or anywhere else.

Then why do you hang out here instead of on Macrobusiness? If you prefer to only hear the bearish site of an argument, and dislike people debunking the made up nonsense they come up with on Macrobusiness, then you should leave this forum and move over to Macrobusiness where you can wallow in bear born without people spoiling your 'fun' with pesky facts and data.

Because the bulls are as low as shark shit and hate it when the truth is spoken, even on a little blog that hardly gets visited by the masses. The bulls would be happy with nothing less than North Korean style control.

Australian Property Forum is an economics and finance forum dedicated to discussion of Australian and global real estate markets and macroeconomics, including house prices, housing affordability, and the likelihood of a property crash. Is there an Australian housing bubble? Will house prices crash, boom or stagnate? Is the Australian property market a pyramid scheme or Ponzi scheme? Can house prices really rise forever? These are the questions we address on Australian Property Forum, the premier real estate site for property bears, bulls, investors, and speculators. Members may also discuss matters related to finance, modern monetary theory (MMT), debt deflation, cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin Ethereum and Ripple, property investing, landlords, tenants, debt consolidation, reverse home equity loans, the housing shortage, negative gearing, capital gains tax, land tax and macro prudential regulation.

Forum Rules: The main forum may be used to discuss property, politics, economics and finance, precious metals, crypto currency, debt management, generational divides, climate change, sustainability, alternative energy, environmental topics, human rights or social justice issues, and other topics on a case by case basis. Topics unsuitable for the main forum may be discussed in the lounge. You agree you won't use this forum to post material that is illegal, private, defamatory, pornographic, excessively abusive or profane, threatening, or invasive of another forum member's privacy.

Accusations, attacks, abuse or threats, litigious or otherwise, directed against the forum or forum administrators aren't tolerated and will result in immediate suspension of your account for a number of days depending on the severity of the attack. No spamming or advertising in the main forum. Spamming includes repeating the same message over and over again within a short period of time. Don't post ALL CAPS thread titles. The Advertising and Promotion Subforum may be used to promote your Australian property related business or service. Active members of the forum who contribute regularly to main forum discussions may also include a link to their product or service in their signature block.
