Good. Forcing some affordability back into the housing market can now only come from the demand side of the market tanking enough that not even the fed can manage a bailout like they did in 2008. The same will have to happen to the vehicle market, to get it back in line with reality. Of course, it will take a long time to actually happen, because any number of tactics will be stupidly attempted to prop them up, and to try and avoid booking the write downs.
Neighbor put his house on the market about a month ago. It was under contract in less than 10 days and he has already closed and moved out. Single woman buyer, not an investment company. Older home, zero renovations from what I saw of the pics. Glad to know that at least MY neighborhood is still desirable.
Government simply CANNOT STEAL 50%+ of the wealth of the nation and expect anyone to have anything to live their lives with.
Similar situation here. A house down the street went under contract in under 2 weeks, hasn’t closed yet. Don’t know who the buyer is, but undoubtedly will be a private buyer in this area (and at these prices). While it’s nice to live in a desirable area, the flip side of that coin has been that property prices (and thereby real estate taxes) have risen even higher than the typical rocket shot off the post-2008 lows, so the cost of living crisis is only further amplified. For now, affluent buyers are keeping the game going in areas like that, but it’s an outlier, as goes the nationwide general trend now.
Me too bro. Small, upscale, southern town. Dont care what my home is worth at least until 20 years when my kids inherit it.
