Yes I think the groups have had a lot to do with the prices going up, because the market is so shallow. If you promote a small region to hundreds of people who rush in at once, it creates a disaster later on.

Back in 2010. 2011 DB heavily promoted mining towns, now a lot of old students are going bankrupt. While the going is good they will support you and spruik regions, when it goes bad they won’t be able to help you.
