It was during a family sojourn to the seaside town of Pescara, Italy, Rob DeDominicis first laid eyes on what would become the harbinger of his future. Andrew McKean writes.
There may not be an over exposure to property in SMSFs. Sadly that can't be said for the rest of the Australia. Record levels of Household debt, low interest rates and ballooning property prices provide all the ingredients for a property disaster.

We've already got the 2nd highest property prices in the world. Maybe getting to No. 1 might be the trigger point, when we realise the emperor is naked.
