don't property prices in canberra fluctuate in line with the political party in power?
i believe the premise is that during a large, swelling and inefficient labour government, that there is high demand for property and lots of squandering of money, which leads to good business and high housing prices. conversely, when the conservative party are in, things get trimmed right back and run much more frugally and efficiently, and prices drop.
i suppose kevin rudd's investments are aligned with his own best interests. unfortunately for him, i believe in just 3 short months time, that he will be out of a job and facing declining prices on his canberra IP as the reigns of the nation are finally taken back into the control of a party that wants the nation and its wealth-builders to prosper, not to prop up poor investments, make new poor investments and distribute the nations hard-earned wealth to a bunch of lazy non-contributers.
