Years ago I read something that was eye-opening. Not saying having a home doesn't have benefits for most people.

But I read that highest percentage of renters are the very poor...and the very rich. Cuz rich people can better returns on their money elsewhere.

obvs not always true as some markets tend to stay hot NYC SF.

100%

I agree most renters are brokecels,

But some are really smart and understands a home is NOT an investment, and these people are much richer than homecels

Fuark, if it only crashes 15% I'll only be able to sell for a small profit after paying RE agent.

I think you guys spouting stuff about how buyers are in debt up to their eyeballs overestimate the payments on a mortgage when rates are in the 2.8% range. A $500,000 mortgage at that rate is only $2,054/month, of course taxes and insurance add on to that but if you bought somewhere that isn't a tax prison (in my state, for example) your taxes and insurance will only add like $300 to that. $2,354 a month for housing is affordable easily on a household income of $100k, and the median home sold for like $350k last year so take that for what its worth.

This market will definitely cool off and correct at some point, but it's not going to be a collapse. There's nothing to feed the spiral. People aren't going to randomly foreclose on their homes when their payments stayed the same.
We had a lot of investment buyers with the lower interest rates coming through our funnel. To the point we had to alter our software to better service what had previously been an edge case. That number has dropped off.

House across the street from me just sold at 100k over prices 2 years ago. When it went up on the market everyone laughed because rates were now at 5.2% + and the asking price was absurd.

Literally within 2 days I watched like 20 people come and go, and that was just about 2 hours after work, It was contingent, then back on the market, then the next day sold.

This is in IL too so I'm still not seeing any sort of housing crisis on the horizon here. Even with all of these "indicators."

I noticed something too when watching the people going to the house. They were all younger couples going with their families. You know what that means? Parents are putting the down payment down or helping their kids to get a house because of the prices.

I've read that you should estimate 3% of your home value in operating costs every year above the mortgage payment. So that's things like taxes, utilities, maintenance, plumber visits etc, appliances, expensive stuff that you might need every ten years like a new roof, furnace, etc. Even taking care of the lawn costs a bit annually. So your $500k home has a 2k mortgage plus about 1.5k a month in other overhead (obviously spread over time).

One trap home owners fall into all the time is thinking that it's just the mortgage payment. Renters don't pay for most of that stuff (usually utilities and that's it) and landlords can only charge what the market will bear, so it's not like they can recoup losses all the time by charging more to the next guy.

Rentals in my city are currently MUCH lower than if you bought the same place, especially when you consider people are overbidding like crazy and already house poor when they start out. So many house poor people coming into play once interest rates go up a couple of more points.

Lol at thinking renters don't pay for maintenance costs.

This whole rent vs buy conversation is dumb though. For some people it makes sense to rent and for others it makes sense to buy. Lifestyle is the determining factor, a home isn't an investment.

No there won't be a crash like we saw in 2008-2012. However I think it will calm down quite a bit. This BS of homes going for 20% over market value is about to fall off. It will probably go back to a more normal market but inflation will keep the prices up there.

I really hope the housing markets corrects itself as is now its absolutely insane how the prices have gone up. I would say the pay rate has gone up maybe 10% on average in the last 3-4 years and the housing prices have increased 50%-100% in that same period..


Also lol at everything falling apart with the Dems in charge litearlly everything is falling apart. Even Amazon posted a 3.8 billion quarterly loss INSANE.

yeah it'll calm down about 40%.

NAR is a RE bull and they say values will decrease 9% this year.

I think the part where you didn't sell at the peak to realize your gains is the issue

home sales are down 9% in march

Lol!

You don't know it, but that thing would sell for maybe $1.2M right now. And less than what you paid for it in another 6 months. Homes in my city are being listed for about 15% less than what Zillow Algorithms are pricing them at, and selling for less.

Probably would only get 1.2 million right now. Lol at people taking this Zillow estimate seriously.

All Florida agents in my ******** are posting everday looking for leads, and some "Successful" agent i know from NY is flogging like a free appraisal worth 250 dollars lol.

Florida sales numbers are down in general just from lack of inventory

people just haven't listed houses in the first place so RE agents have to take what they can get.

Despite objectively looking like a sub 80 iq manlet at the moment OPs got a good schtick going. If he keeps saying real estate will crash he'll be right and can just forget about the years he spent being wrong. Meanwhile everyone who bought a home before rates went up will be sitting on 30% increased equity and payments lower than anyone in history even after the coming "crash".

If op had any actual knowledge of RE he'd stfu and use it to maximize his own profit.

I'll keep on happily paying my mortgage that is equivalent to a 190,000 mortgage at today's rates, guess if my home loses 51% of it's value (I did the math) I'll be underwater for a few months until it recovers. How will I cope
