The Housing Market Is NOT Going To CRASH | Should You BUY A Home In Today's Market?

Chat with my preferred lender:
www.fmsmith319worldwide.com/youtube
The housing market is not going to crash, however there is a group of homebuyers we need to keep an eye on. The five reasons I do not believe the market will crash:
1. This is not the 2008 housing crisis.
2. 42% of homeowners do not have a mortgage.
3. 62% of homeowners that do have a mortgage, have a 4% interest rate or lower.
4. Institutional investors are buying up starter homes in the 300K - 500k range. These are typically the most sought after homes for first time home buyers, Millennials, Gen Z and Boomers who are looking to downsize.
5. Qualified buyers. Many folks who purchased a home in the past few years have high incomes and low debts.
The group we need to watch are the those folks who over extended themselves the past few years. I hope the economy turns around and people can alleviate some of this financial pressure.
Are there any other scenarios you think could create a potential crash in the market?

People will have to accept the possibility that we won't ever return to 3%. If sellers must sell, home prices will have to decline, and lower evaluations will follow. Sure I'm not alone in my chain of thoughts.

If anything, it'll get worse. Very soon, affordable housing will no longer be affordable. So anything anyone want to do, I will advise they do it now because the prices today will look like dips tomorrow. Until the Fed clamps down even further, I think we're going to see hysteria due to rampant inflation. You can't halfway rip the band-aid off.

Home prices will come down eventually, but for now; get your money (as much as you can) out of the housing market and get into the financial markets or gold. The new mortgage rates are crazy, add to that the recession and the fact that mortgage guidelines are getting more difficult. Home prices will need to fall by a minimum of 40% (more like 50%) before the market normalizes.If you are in cross roads or need sincere advise on the best moves to take now its best you seek an independent advisor who knows about the financial markets

I think Housing market won't go down like the 2008 crash, but surely there will be less foreign buyers. Which could suppress the rate of house price increases.

I was super lucky, and got my house before everything went completely insane. was even lucky enough to refinance at a 2.9% interest rate. But when I bought the house (4 bedroom 2 bath, acre of land) I had a boyfriend, a roommate 2 cats and a dog. But now its just me, split with the boyfriend, roommate moved in with their significant other and I feel trapped with this house. I am totally overwhelmed trying to maintain it. I cant afford to pay for a handyman or a yard person. And its just too much for me to do myself. I've tried getting other roommates but things haven't been great and it's scary as a single older lady(49). Now, I could sell the house, and get a good price for it, but it seems insane to end up paying twice as much for a one bedroom apartment as I am for the mortgage + tax escrow on my current place. Like I know how super lucky I am and I shouldn't complain, but I'm honestly not sure where to go from here as none of the options are really seem good. This market is insane, I honestly don't know how the younger generations are going to make it. Are we moving to a nation of having to have roommates for the rest of our life just to get by?

Buying a house requires math skills you should have acquired in the third grade. Basic percentage math. You also need to be able to forecast a budget and should be prepared for fluctuations in that budget. (i.e if you buy a home at 4% have contingencies in your budget that allow you to still afford it at 7%). In Canada, we have to renegotiate our mortgages every five years so this is important. I understand in the U.S. you can sign a full 25 year mortgage at a single rate. What I did, and if you can do it I highly recommend it, is build your house yourself. I bought empty land just outside my local city and built my house with my own two hands. The upside is I have a 'materials only' mortgage, because all the labor I did myself, making my mortgage tiny. The equity on day one became the down payment because the house is valued at twice the mortgage. I am a Millennial and this one move, as well as a little disciplined investing, has given me a net worth of just under a million. I know it's not something everyone can do, but I hear so many people my age complaining about the cost of living, and then not go look for an alternative that will solve their problem. I don't come from money, I make an average income, and I don't have a college degree. There is nothing special about me. Anyone with a work ethic could do what I did and be comfortable.

Real estate is all data. We can go back 50 years to see patterns that exist, with the exception of the 2008 crash. They don't teach that in real estate school, though. Because real estate is seasonal, we tend to see a slow down in the Fall (correction), anyways, especially around the holidays. The 2021 -2022 market was an anomaly, and of course houses flew off the market. Interest rates were low, inventory was also low. Prices have continued to rise and I wouldn't call it a correction necessarily due to the gains made over the past years. Houses will sit longer, with price reductions, but those reductions aren't even equivalent to the equity gained. Sellers can afford to reduce because of that reason alone.

The idea that it only cost $800 to have a house is honestly, laughable. You are looking at anywhere between $1,200 to $2,000. Especially if you haven’t planned on large ticket maintenance items. The housing crash of 08 is going to look… different in some ways better and someways much worse. Here in the next 10-20 years we will see a ton of really poorly maintained homes come onto the market. Obviously not every one of these homes but enough. In 08 a bunch of 5-15 year old homes came onto the market that needed minimal repairs. What we will get are 50-60 year old homes that need just about everything fixed. The boomers didn’t pay to maintain public infrastructure why do you think they would maintain personal property? Especially people that got reversed mortgages… it only takes a few years of bad maintenance and neglect for a home to $10k+ in damage now imagine decades. There’s got to be more old people that are forced out of their homes because it’s become unlivable and they can’t afford to fix it. The issue is nobody else will either.

There's a flaw in this analysis. Price is only set by those who can participate in the marketplace. Homeowners without mortgages who derive utility from living in that home as a primary residence are no longer in that marketplace--they can't buy and sell on a dime. The most active participants in the real estate market are investors, including individuals with second homes, who are chasing short-term returns. This creates more volatility in home prices leading to booms and busts. This is unchartered territory. The crash is coming, it's inevitable.

For the housing market is going to crash right now now but I would say you have that coming in the next two years basically two years out there's going to be a crash we're starting to see the lead up to that now after all we've got less activity happening in the new construction that basically means that finances are tightening up. But then of course you also have a situation where a lot of people purely just don't have the money up front to deal with a conventional loan there's plenty of inventory on the market the big lie has been that there's a shortage of inventory that's a crock of shit the reality is simply most of the inventory available on the market you need to get a conventional loan in order to buy it and a lot of people really just can't get a conventional loan simply because they can't come up with the money up front that's necessary to get that loan. Then of course you have a situation where industries are contracting this means layoffs this means a lot of people are poised to lose their jobs or they may have to take a severe reduction in pay the other going to have to take a lesser of a job meaning they're not going to pay for the house so we're already seeing evidence of that with a spike foreclosures.

It was basically the same environment everything was overvalued via it's a bubble you had a situation where new construction slowed that's going on currently we have a situation where you know businesses industries in general were floundering yeah that's happening I mean after all there's basically a commercial real estate collapse so right there is the sign of you know not very many options for a job. So yeah I mean the rest of this year and most of next year should be fine but when you get to 2027 I think you'll see an increase foreclosures and pretty much by 28 you're going to see a outright collapse.

The 42% won't be affected by the crash, unless they need/have to sell; kids need to sell deceased parents home, or panic. The 58% with high mortgages, ARM's, and losing their jobs will suffer the crash.

You’re making a lot of assumptions. Most people buy the most home they can afford. Thats out of their entire budget, energy, food, maintenance, entertainment, kids, clothes etc. You think a $200k home is “small,” for most people, that’s a lot. Wages have not risen to compensate for higher costs. Not even close. Also, IT IS A LOT of people overextended on debt right now. More than ever. I don’t understand how you could put out a video like this without knowing that. Bankruptcies are up. Layoffs are up. Business closures are up. The inflation RATE is creeping back up.

@@RedGottie but how many of those extended in debt people are homeowners? Now there will be foreclosures happening due to the factors you listed, but it’s in no means enough to cause a crash. You’re going to need about 3million+ foreclosures to even make a dent in the market. We’re not even close to half a million yet.

[@RedGottie]

@@chamonglee you’re talking just about foreclosure. Thats just one part of it. You should be thinking more broadly. How many people will lose the ability to buy a home when they lose their job? How many have lost the ability to save for one? How many will have poor credit because of defaults on credit cards, vehicles, other loans? You’re stuck in the mindset of trying to compare everything to 2008. It’s not. This isn’t a single market meltdown that will create a recession. It’s a multimarket, multi-industry, multi-national meltdown that will cause a recession, or worse. To exacerbate the issue we have the largest generation dying at a higher rate, causing their homes to return to the market. This will also put downward pressure on the housing market.

Instead of waiting for the market to crash, why don’t more folks talk about group ownership? A few friends 3 maybe. Buy a home and start earning equity. I see a lot of of young 20 and early 30 year old do this in Europe. Also really focus on letting folks know, hey rates may be high, but you’re genuinely paying 100% interest rate in renting. Getting absolutely nothing back. When the market crashes; which I doubt will happen. Than your prepared to move up the property ladder. Lastly a different variable to consider, is a lot of mortgage companies help when you cannot make a payment due to hardship. It’s incredible the amount of resources a homeowner has vs a renter. I’ve owned since 2008

It’s a good idea on paper but puts people in a very unstable situation especially if there’s a falling out and your credit/finances are tied to a house with friends.

[@user-dj6lx1ns2e]

@@nintha1 You need a legal agreement to cover all that.

[@nintha1]

@@user-dj6lx1ns2e I mean signing a lease to a house with a group of people is technically a legal agreement, but I don’t think you can make a legal agreement saying the other person on your lease has to pay their portion of the mortgage. Renting is a different case because you can probably do a civil case and arrange something in that way, but I don’t think you can do that with a mortgage

[@user-dj6lx1ns2e]

@nintha1 it's not a lease when your buying it & yes you can get a legal agreement outlining buyout &/or surrender rights. I know people who have done it.

Look i love this guy but at the same time, He's already a homeowner. It's in his best interest that The market stays the way it is for his own property value. Yes it's true what he says for millennials and Gen z not being able to buy homes, but his solution is more government based rather than letting the market correct itself and crash later. Because it would hurt HIS interest since he already owns a home. As right as he is on a lot of things, we still have to be mindful of bias. Its similar to when realtors tell you its always a good time to buy. The market is definitely going to crash, the consumer base has been priced out of virtually ever major population center in the U.S. There's pile ups of empty neighborhoods with a high price tag that no average buyer will even look at. It just takes one company like Zillow to drop their prices and trigger the chain reaction. And that terrifies this guy

Zillow doesn’t own anymore homes lol. He’s literally stating facts. Just because it’s not what you want to hear doesn’t mean it’s the reality.

Buying is always cheaper than renting. That's why people buy!

[@stevenlee2120]

Not true! Insurance, maintenance, property taxes can get really expensive.

[@graceg3250]

That’s not true if you don’t plan on living in your home for less than 10 plus years, because during that time interest rates are the majority of your payment, so you have very little equity in the house. Also, home repairs are very expensive (like $30,000 every 10 ten years for a new roof, etc.). And your neighborhood’s value could go down. And a natural disaster could destroy your home (often insurance won’t cover costs and if they do it will take years).

[@Klake-bk2dp]

Buying is almost never cheaper than renting! Sorry! Because I can rent what I need when I need it. Owning out right a 4/3 in the suburbs is going to cost more than renting a 1 bedroom apartment in the city center. The “I live a fundamentally unaffordable lifestyle and the only way I can afford to live like this is to take all this risk. That is why renting sucks” sounds like a weird argument to me.

[@Klake-bk2dp]

The idea that it only cost $800 to have a house is honestly, laughable. You are looking at anywhere between $1,200 to $2,000. Especially if you haven’t planned on large ticket maintenance items. The housing crash of 08 is going to look… different in some ways better and someways much worse. Here in the next 10-20 years we will see a ton of really poorly maintained homes come onto the market. Obviously not every one of these homes but enough. In 08 a bunch of 5-15 year old homes came onto the market that needed minimal repairs. What we will get are 50-60 year old homes that need just about everything fixed. The boomers didn’t pay to maintain public infrastructure why do you think they would maintain personal property? Especially people that got reversed mortgages… it only takes a few years of bad maintenance and neglect for a home to $10k+ in damage now imagine decades. There’s got to be more old people that are forced out of their homes because it’s become unlivable and they can’t afford to fix it. The issue is nobody else will either.
