It also doesn't take into account that apartment dwellings are increasingly touted as the solution to supply. Speaking as someone who's trying to buy an apartment just because it'd be nice to have the security, I think it's delusional for anyone to expect to make money off these things when the supply of comparable housing is only increasing. Plenty of houses around me (Melbourne) have doubled in price in the last 10-20 years; anyone trying to use an apartment as a stepping stone to those is in for a rude shock.
