It’s what we saw in the 08 crash. Peoples home loans are for more than the value of the home so they just walk away. And combined with many Americans are living on credit cards which are poised to skyrocket on their rates it’s a perfect storm. And Great Recession II is here.

Not even remotely close to what we saw in 2008. Prices and values are high right now. Interest rates are being raised and that's what will slow or stall the market. Pretty sure those subprime rules were amended after the last go round.
 
It is absolutely on a bubble that will burst shortly. Applications for home mortgages are cratering. The insane increases over the last 2+ years were never based on anything other than speculation.
I watched the prices rising knowing this was unsustainable & would lead to a major correction.
The housing market is going to crash land so if you have any property you want to sell, get it on the market soon.

 
Meh, then the rent boom will just take over. There are fewer houses to buy and interest rates are higher so it can be cost effective for some to rent.

Peeps are biding-up rents now like they did houses. Average rent for a single family 3/2 is 2K a month now and shows no sign of cooling off......That means you need to make around 75k if you go by 30% of your after tax income for housing.

Add the increased cost of everything else and chew on that one for a while.

Median monthly rent surpasses $2K in the U.S. for the first time, study finds​


CHARLOTTE, N.C. (WBTV) - For the first time, the median monthly rent in the United States surpassed $2,000 a month, according to Redfin.

That’s 15% higher than this time last year.

Members of Redfin, which monitors the U.S. housing market, say the median monthly rent in Charlotte is now just over $1,800 a month as of May. That’s 8.7% higher than the same time in 2021.

Real estate investors like me are looking forward to this.
 
Existing low interest mortgages are a form of equity. If you can afford the monthly payment, you can hang on to your house regardless of its current market value. And Uncle $am will be sure to print more money if you need it. That is the irony of what used to be known as fiscal responsibility.
 
You people are just hilarious.

Prices of RE and homes booming during the previous Admin and not a one of you ever posted about them being over valued or a bubble or any of the sort....not all of a sudden those prices were not real!

How can any of you shave with two faces like this?

China buying up most of the West coast property has indeed caused high prices.

Yeah, the DNC/vegetable had to accelerate things because Trump set them back on their timeline to bankrupt the US and put the NWO in power. If Trump had not won, the US would already be a third world country.
