The bubble pops once the big development firms start going under. At some point, the highly leveraged property developers will stop being able to clear out the apartment blocks they're putting up presuming $1m+ sale prices. They're the ones who pop the bubble, since a few bankruptcies are very likely to cascade into panic selling.

They go under when buyers stop showing up. It's the buyers. Think: where does their money come from? (from buyers)
