Default Re: Real Estate/Mortgage Loan/Stock Market

I have looked at that, but the puts themselves are very expensive and cut heavily into your potential profit. The stock has to drop a tremendous amount before you make a profit. Though perhaps builders and mortgage lenders' prices will collapse so dramatically over the next 2-3 year that you will profit, even after the cost of the put.
