I bought for 750k. There is no logical reason why my house would now be worth 900k. So yes, it can tank. By tank I mean stop appreciating at the ridiculous levels we’ve seen the last 10 years.
If housing prices were to completely stagnate or depreciate by 10% tomorrow I would still be even or ahead.
Stagnation is way different then reduction, I’d also be fine with that, as i suspect would be other home owners.
Tank “to suffer rapid decline, failure, or collapse” is different from stagnate. The OP said:

This jives with tank, but not with stagnate.
