The same irrational exuberance existed in the last housing crash which began April 2007; people were saying 'buy now or be priced out forever!'

There were two primary reasons why housing crashed the last time: 1) borrowers were not properly qualified and lacking capacity, defaulted in droves; but the second reason is more telling: 2) negative equity

The government's response to the housing market crisis was to lower rates and flood the economy with printed money. This is akin to giving an alcoholic more alcohol to stave off the hangover. The 'too big to fail' banks just became bigger. The correct response would have been to let it crash and then after a few years we would have been in an organic recovery.

Rising interest rates will be the reason for the current housing crash. But bear in mind the people who are buying homes with maximum leverage will see a significant drop in home prices and will begin strategically defaulting. When the foreclosures start to increase, rents will fall because people will be able to rent homes in various stages of foreclosure on the cheap. It will be a snowball effect sending housing into a tailspin.

I hope I'm wrong, but I'm a realist. The entire economy is a controlled demolition. When the world moves off of the dollar as the reserve currency (which is already happening) then we will no longer be able to export our inflation. Hyperinflation combined with food shortages will usher in the Great Reset.

whew... that was a close one.... Bought our new place late 2019

But seriously we just got lucky AF.... sold one of my rental properties & the home we were currently living when the housing market just started to take off Pre fake a$$ covid... pre $hit stains Joe fkng everything up to line his corrupt demented a$$ pockets..

So we sold for way more than we had originally paid and bought a larger home that at the time that size / price range wasnt real hot... within 2 years comps for similar homes are about $250k-$300k more than we paid in 2019 lulz..

I am no real estate genius by any means I have just been fortunate enough several times now to be in the right place at the right time ready to buy...

Lol, if people can't buy homes the US economy would collapse, 25 percent of the population would lose their jobs, then houses would drop in prices anyway.

Just wanted to give everyone an opportunity to double-down on their housing predictions.

30 year fixed mortgage rates today 6.227%

30 year fixed mortgage rates in January 3.22%

And you really believe this will not have a devastating effect on house prices?

I sold in May of 2021 which was about 6 months early for my area. I probably could have got about 10% more.

However, no one is buying now and prices are taking a dive fast. I'll buy for cash early next year.

Lmao at all the brahs who are so out of town with what's going on around them.

I'll enjoy buying your homes from the bank when you get foreclosed on.

I bought my first house when I was 19. Flipped over 100 of them. Owned a mortgage company employing 80 people which lent over $1billion.

I do not own any real estate now. Have fun on your slippery slope downhill. Amazed people still can't see this.

not to mention all the companies that were operating in red with cheap debt. now that interest rate is up..... all those companies are going to cut costs by laying off people first.

No, but they can check Zillow. lol

Zillow got out of the home buying business in 2022. Zillow will not buy your house. If you understand that appraisals look at previous home sales up to 6 months in the past, then you might start to get an idea why Zillow values would be more than you can actually get on a sale.

Have you noticed fewer 'we will buy your home for cash' ads?
