Wang Ying-chieh, executive director of the Chinese Association of Real Estate Brokers and member of the National Assembly, states that 84 % of people in Taiwan own their own homes. Many have scrimped and saved their entire lives to purchase an apartment, and more than half of their total assets are tied up in this one object. If real-estate prices collapsed, "everyone would lose."
中華民國房屋仲介商業同業公會全聯會榮譽理事長、也是國大代表的王應傑表示，台灣目前的自有房屋率高達百分之八十四，許多人省吃儉用一輩子，一半以上的資產都繫在自己住的房子上，萬一房價崩盤，是「全民皆輸」。
