Real estate prices in large metropolitan areas that have a housing crunch very, very rarely decline, and only temporarily if they do.
I've lived in many countries, and it's the same in all of them.

This. You need to define the market.
I have been looking for some single family investments. In the market I have been looking in, inventory has doubled in the past 7 months and prices are declining. Another market 100 miles away, a major metropolitan area, is rock solid (in fact prices continue to rise).
