I will only accept a recession when property price and rental fall like no tomorrow.

 

Once this happen, everything else will follow.

Property prices usually lag 3-6 mths. A good indicator would be stock market as they are forward looking.

I start to see some early signs, banks cutting staff, banks profit dropping.

A presidential election during the worst financial crunch of the century. It doesnt sound any better.
