Will housing market eventually crash?

Been wanting a new house for a while now. There are some nice brand new houses in the $500-600k that I have been considering. Am I shooting my self in the foot buying now? Or would selling my house now and buying be the same as doing it later down the road because inflated prices?

yes one day the Sun will turn into a Red Giant and destroy all life on earth so either then or before the housing market will likely eventually crash



however if we have managed to settle on other planets/moons further out then the house prices on Titan or wherever are gonna be a BTCH

Where you located?

My mom has a rental property with a bum tenant who's paying 25-45% of the rent along with a covid related note with with each payment. That house is in the process of going up for sale as a result, and we're suggesting the gains be moved out of real estate and divided into various equities and investments. If this were to become a trend, it would definitely put downward pressure on the housing market
Your schtick sucks and it screams insecurity.

Maybe in some areas, but the trend is always up. I think my grandparents paid less than 10k for their house.

Worrying about crashes is something a flipper should worry about.

Houses are long term holds.

in the major metro areas (top 10-20 largest cities in the US), highly unlikely IMO. If there's a broader market crash that affects real estate, maybe a slight pullback (think 10-15%), but not anything super crazy

fact is there is simply more demand than there is supply in most these places. It's simple economics
Awesome pics. Great size. Look thick. Solid. Tight. Keep us all posted on your continued progress with any new progress pics or vid clips. Show us what you got man. Wanna see how freakin' huge, solid, thick and tight you can get. Thanks for the motivation.

the bubble is bigger in the stock market right now, but it's the same cause, oversupply of disposable income with nothing to spend it on due to the pandemic

The stock market will see a faster correction when the world comes to it's senses, and housing prices will go sideways and maybe a little down for a long time as interest rates rise.

Most likely IMO.

Read about it a couple of years back, but single family housing is no longer a normal consumer good. Properties are being purchased by investment groups as an investment, either to flip, or rent out.

So there is a lot of cash out there which most people can't compete against if they don't have equity from a previous property.

If it does go smash regular people will get shafted, while these big investment groups get a government bailout. At least that is what our history supports.

sometimes there are corrections and if it comes from rate hikes then people who live pay check to pay check lose, but people always swoop in and it goes up in the end

It's the same subprime lending conditions as it was in 2008, in 2018, they were very very quietly and lobbied under trump to be de-regulated. You can buy a house with 3 percent deposit, which is diaster for the market long term I feel.

It will drop 30-50% like every other property bubble has before that i've witnessed.

Whole US Economy is one big bubble. The job market has dropped badly this year they are just manipulating the numbers with Biden. Things are bad and everyone knows it.

This. But even with a correction, home prices wont show much change in prices. You will see less offers and being less and less over asking price. Eventually, appreciation and inflation will level out the prices but not necessarily drop the houses prices by too much.

But also, another factor in high prices is lumber/materials cost being at record highs.

There is a supply shortage, so new builds are facing high demand + record high prices to build which is causing huge markups. I dont think lumber prices are a main factor in high overall costs but certainly a factor.

Being able to buy a house with low down payment has no correlation to the 08 crash. The 08 crash was wide scale fraud.

I don't think it will "crash" if you're thinking something like 2008. That was triggered by all the sub prime lending BS with poor lending practices. This run up of late is largely caused by lack of available inventory. You have more buyers than sellers. That isn't about to change. Also, materials cost have sky rocketed which is adding to that. If it costs significantly more to build a replacement house, then houses already built also benefit from that.

These are just two of the current contributors, but this is much different than a normal "bubble", particularly like we saw the last time around...

I lol that most of the articles on internet addressing OP's question are written by real estate agents. As if real estate agents would ever say "yes a crash is imminent save your money and don't pay me oversized commissions." Also, lol at the idea that real estate agents have an idea re the market - they literally just search for listed homes and make appointments for ppl, glorified personal assistants.

No because home ownership has become consolidated. The number of people who own the home they live in has plummeted while the number of people who own 10+, 20+, 50+ homes has skyrocketed.

With the instability of the u.s. economy (impending collapse and downfall from world superpower to moderate place on the world economic spectrum) anyone with a high income is recognizing they need to tie up their money in physical investments like real estate.

Yep. Mortgages were in high demand to resell as MBS/derivatives so the bankers were handing out mortgages to pretty much anyone.

https://www.thebalance.com/role-of-d...crisis-3970477

The idea that consumers were the ones to blame rather than the bankers handing out inappropriate loans was convenient and is the story the media pushed. Generally we blamed the junkies while rescuing the drug dealer "victims".
