When I bought my house, the seller was in contract with another buyer. But the buyer backed out so seller could have keept the earnest money deposit.

However both parties have to agree and sign the paperwork for the seller to keep the deposit. Even when the buyer was in wrong, he didn't agree for the seller to keep the deposit. The seller could not put the house back into the market until it was settled. The seller eventually gave all of the deposit back to the seller after 2 month dispute.

I'm planning to sell in Sept. If the bubble pops before then, I'll just rent it out with a management company and ignore it. At least I'll have an asset.

Either way I win.

People have cash *******. Maybe not bill or Tom next door, but Chad and investors do. If every home that is currently in default were to instantly hit the market, nearly all of it would be gobbled up by years end without massive “corrections” like the copecels here think.

And to those who say “I’ll be waiting for a crash with cash in hand” apparently the guy above doesn’t think you have cash but aside from that, do you think you’re doing anything someone else isn’t doing? You don’t think there are a chit ton of people with even more cash and desire to scoop chit up than you? Yeah you really got this all figured out lol.

The financially capable are more liquid rich than ever before. People are chomping at the bit to buy, and are unable to due to supply issues. As soon as something comes online it will be devoured even if a million homes come online. The only difference you will see is lower competition and less bidding wars, but we will actually see more “realistic” asking prices (for those smooth brains that don’t understand why homes keep going so high over asking, it’s because they are priced low to get as many eyes as possible on it and then get people to compete amongst themselves. We will simply see homes listed accordingly)

So what is driving up prices in already high markets and where is the money coming from that is being used for cash or 20%+ offers to buy these absurdly priced homes?

I'm not a "its going to crash any day now" type of guy - in fact, I believe a crash is years and years away. But kind of surprised you don't see we are in a period of irrational exuberance.

I'm also surprised by ppl saying "it ain't 2008, lending standards are higher". Do you honestly think banks have not figured out some other way to maximize their profits by high volume lending? And what fuels high volume lending? Increased collateral. A huge portion of USA's credit system is built off of the assumption that the underlying collateral is really worth what we think it is worth right now. If that is ever proven wrong (e.g., there stops being a secondary market gobbling up structured finance assets), things crumble, again.

what is up with people ITT putting words in my mouth? I never expressed that sentiment, but I will ask, if inflation is here and its not transitory, then why wouldn't todays prices be more accurate than they arent? cant have it both ways...

Nope, never said that and don't think that. Banks are beyond words flush with cash, and have increased dividends substantially almost all the way across the board. But what does maximizing profits have to do with anything? Do you believe they are doing something unscrupulous like they were doing in 2008?

You act like that's a primary factor and not just one of many contributing elements.
Also it should be noted that in Q3 and Q4 of 2020, first time home buyers accounted for 56% of home purchases... hmmmm but collateral is what's getting us in trouble right?

Value is meaningless in fixed rate situations for people looking for long term homes. The only thing that matters is if they can afford their payment (which is a circumstance completely unrelated to the value of their home).

A large reason we experienced what we did in 2008 because people were in ARMs and thought they would be able to refinance forever because they thought prices will only go up! As soon as those values dropped, they couldn't refinance, and their ARMs expired and their 3% interest rate sky rocketed to 20%...

Yeah the Fed is inflating asset prices by keeping interest rates low too. Smart money (like Blackstone) is getting into residential real estate as a hedge against inflation.

My prediction: inventory is unlikely to change in a meaningful way in the short term so we will likely be still dealing with intense competition and bidding wars for the next few years assuming interest rates are kept artificially low. Housing prices will continue to rise and become more unaffordable to the average person. Sure we might get some foreclosures and short sales that eventually come through down the road but these are slow moving forces so it's not like it will be a massive wave of foreclosures.

If you own property right now and have a better use for the cash it's definitely worth considering selling in one of the strongest sellers markets in modern history.

Source: I'm a realtor that mostly works with a lot of investors
bruh that is the thing, a crash would be the natural expectation but they have enough capitol to manipulate the market, the same as last year stock market that was pumped.

If youre a realtor who makes a percentage off the sales price then of course you dont want the crash or gravy train to end vs the individual buyer who has the opposite goal

A crash will never happen. We have far too much demand for a house that will override the incoming supply of potential foreclosures or new homes.

The only thing people are seeing by the "market cooling" is two things:
1) People are going to get ready to travel again, so less money invested into their current/future home
2) People were trying to cause bidding wars with undervaluing their homes; causing a massive spike in competition. From watching my market, homes either have less bidders; or are pulled off the market and slowly dropped in price.

Everyone hoping for a crash - specifically first-time homebuyers - better get peppered, because chances are there is someone else out there who can outbid you np.

Never really understood this phrase. Like, its going to be a great time to sell for a while still, so being greedy in this case and selling would be beneficial, while holding and eventually hitting the dump would be detrimental. I get it in terms of purchasing stocks and commodities, but if a market is hot nows the time to sell (if you want to of course).
