Higher unemployment, worse in some industries than others. Stagnated or decreased wages. Decreased capital income to investment accounts and savings accounts. Prices don't escalate as much as they become more difficult to reach because of a devalued currency.
Assets depreciate, which tends to hit housing the worst. Housing is a big block of asset, instead of something like stocks which can be sold off at small losses per share. You can't sell a piece of a house. You can only sell the whole thing.
With rising unemployment, stagnated wages and frozen activity in assets, leading banks to lend less money, it means housing prices will REALLY descend.
But don't get too excited over that if you're not a homeowner, thinking you'll be able to get a house cheap. If you depend on wages for your income the most, you won't see enough of an increase in your wages or enough opportunity to increase your wages to attract lending for that purpose.
 
What if housing drops disproportionately which is what happens when bubbles burst. **** off and stop acting as though you have anything to teach. leave that to the advisors and gooseman etc.
