"...real estate shill.."?   Have you looked at the real estate market of the early 1970's and the late 1980's.  Real estate prices doubled during both periods in roughly three  years.  My father bought a 10-acre building lot in Caledon for $10,000 in 1968, he sold it for $74,000 in 1974.  And I don't sell real estate.  But thanks for commenting.
