So let us not discuss house prices, the calculation thereof and the perturbations thereof here, go away and do that somewhere else.
Let us instead discuss what the supposed link between housing and retirement operator profits is.
Evidence would be more useful than IMHO's

I despair of humans, never quite sure how they made it down from the trees. Probably feel out and landed on their heads.

Based on your comment above I take it you read neither, but giving you the benefit of the doubt that you did in fact read them, and your strong desire to talk about the link between housing and the retirement sector what are your thoughts on both these two papers and how they relate to SUM!
They are irrelevant to the discussion I am suggesting would be a more useful one to pursue, and on which I have commented on this thread previously.
