“Flood Gates Will Open” - Is NOW The Time To Buy? Housing Market Faces NIGHTMARE Crisis

[@EdmundEthan093]

I'm in Michigan, and the housing market here over the past 7-8 years has been unprecedented. Houses that were purchased for $130K in 2015 are now going for $590K. These are tiny, poorly constructed 950-square-foot homes in quiet, mediocre neighborhoods. Meanwhile, nicer, average-sized homes in better neighborhoods that were over $300K a decade ago are now selling for $750K+. It's wild.

[@roxdietren]

@MaryLawson874 I've been in touch with a financial advisor ever since I started my business. Knowing today's culture The challenge is knowing when to purchase or sell when investing in trending stocks, which is pretty simple. On my portfolio, which has grown over $900k in a little over a year, my adviser chooses entry and exit orders.

It’s the dollar it’s not the home. With inflation the dollar is worth less than it was in 2015. They devalued the dollar to pay off the countries debt it’s the only way the country can pay off its debts even with a recession it will not affect home prices they way people assume it will. Because our money is still worthless I mean worth less

[@nicolasbenson009]

Because so many people overpaid for homes even while loan rates were low, I believe there will be a housing catastrophe because these people are in debt. If housing costs continue to drop and, for whatever reason, they can no longer afford the property and it goes into foreclosure, they have no equity since, even if they try to sell, they will not make any money. I believe that many individuals will experience this, especially given the impending mass layoffs and rapidly rising living expenses.

[@berniceburgos-]

I advise you to invest in stocks to balance out your real estate, Even the worst recessions offer wonderful buying opportunities in the markets if you're cautious. Volatility can also result in excellent short-term buy and sell opportunities. This is not financial advice, but buy now because cash is definitely not king right now!

[@tatianastarcic]

You're correct! With the help of an investment coach, I was able to diversify my 450K portfolio across markets and produce slightly more than $830K in net profit from high dividend yield equities, ETFs, and bonds.

Would you mind providing details on the advisor who helped you? saving for a pension through a corporate program since the age of 18. I hit greater tax along the road, so I increased my company pension with a SIPP (tax benefits). I'm now 50 and would love to expand my finances more aggressively; there are a few automobiles I still want to drive and a few mega-vacations that I still want to take.

Then you’ve got Better, average sized homes in nicer neighborhoods that were $300K+ 10 years ago selling for $750k+ now. Wild times.

[@JacquelinePerrira]

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.

[@kevinmarten]

Personally, I can connect to that. When I began working with a fiduciary financial counsellor, my advantages were certain. I got into the market early 2019 and the constant downtrends and losses discouraged me so I sold off, got back in Dec 2021 this time with guidance, Long story short, its been 2years now and I’ve gained over a million dollars following guidance from my investment adviser.

[@kevinmarten]

consider moving your money from the housing market to financial markets or gold due to high mortgage rates and tough guidelines. Home prices may need to drop significantly before things stabilize. Seeking advice from a financial advisor who understands the market could be helpful in making the right decisions.

The increasing prices have impacted my plan to retire at 62, work part-time, and save for the future.

The combination of stock market volatility and a decrease in income is causing anxiety about whether I'll have sufficient funds for retirement.

Anyone who doesn’t look at THAT part of the listing, the previous purchase price, and you don’t see that any renovations have been made in those 4 years (or hell, since the original build of the house) and the roof or HVAC is 10 plus years old, should not even paying 50% more than the house value in 2020/2021- F that, I will continue to rent, because that is absolutely guaranteed money lost.

Just had this happen to me. Had to take our home off the market, because everyone is getting denied due to high interest rates. Buying a $1M house at 3% with 20% down, means a mortgage of ~$3k/mth. Now buying the same house with the same down payment at 7% interest rates, means a mortgage of ~$7-8K/mth. It's ridiculous that the fed keeps printing money and send it overseas to back wars and all Americans are paying for it in every aspect of their lives: grocery, rent, mortgage, retail, etc...

[@AllGoldEverything7]

People are so clueless it’s not the rates that matter it’s the current evaluation on the home. If you over pay on a home you’re screwed. If you buy a home with a high interest rate at normal price evaluation then you could eventually refinance later. YOU CAN’T CHANGE THE COST AT WHICH YOU’VE BROUGHT A HOUSE!

[@HeidiWillToWin]

Yup. That is precisely why I am holding off on buying. I am in Florida and I refuse to buy a house that is at a 50-100% inflated value compared to what it cost in 2020/2021. Last year, I was seeing prices that were like 250% more than they were purchased for in 2020/2021. Im not playing that game. ESPECIALLY when the kitchen and bathrooms look like they came with the original build of the house and the roof and HVAC haven’t been updated in 20 years. F that.

We had a pending contract but would lose the house to someone paying cash or offering over full price. It was a frustrating, disappointing experience.

Another big change is how real estate agent commissions will be paid starting next month. The seller will no longer have to offer the buying agent a commission.

That's not enough difference to make a buy or not-buy decision. The problem is housing prices are so inflated that they have to come down to a more affordable level. In the "old days" the metric was your housing costs should be 30% or less of your HH income. Today, we see housing costs pushing 50% - 60% of the median HH income. With other costs increasing over 30% over the past three years, the numbers just don't work.

Clear you’ve never lived in Tampa/St. Pete. It’s a wonderful place to live.

You’re wrong. That is Houston 😂

That is why the Spaniards sold it to the US for nothing, and got out of Cuba …singing..😂😂

After driving through the whole state east coast and west coast, I was shocked by the monthly nut people are expected to pay in Florida, not remotely worth it. Most houses are selling for 2-2.5x or more what they're worth.

Who agree Miami Florida to hot to live at lol

Rates can go down but home insurance in FL is insane.

[@francescaderimini2931]

In Chicago my taxes were higher than my mortgage! Police told us not to call them is we had a break in!

[@GenXzer78]

No!!!!!

[@O4C209]

Interest, insurance, and taxes are "hidden" costs that are putting some heavy pressure on people.

[@geese7484]

I’m so glad I bought my house in 2015. New homes close to my neighborhood are way smaller and almost twice as expensive. 🤯

[@saintsandsin3885]

I live in SWFL in the same house since 2004. If you spend less than you make, and you keep yourself out of debt by not keeping up to the Jones's you will be just find when the market dips. All the wealthy people I know own their houses and vehicles for a long time.

I love south Florida, lived in Fort Lauderdale & Weston my whole life… I wish the reason there is a surge of homes on the market was due to over-construction to accommodate for the flock coming to Florida these past years. As it is a factor, almost 90% of the condos for sale that are just sitting are over 30 years old. Especially in Miami dade after the tragic building collapse we’re seeing special assessments go through the roof and deeming these properties basically unsellable for now. It’s a sticky position to be in, I have multiple clients that are begging me to get them sold because their special assessments are as high as their mortgage, and I even have one client that their building is evacuating because it didn’t pass building codes. Overall, the reason in all of south Florida that there are houses sitting right now is because home values are still sky high as you mentioned, but I think its being hopeful that lowering interest rates are going to solve everything when unemployment is so high right now. I do believe south Florida will be okay though because of the tax friendly environment like you said people want to be in Florida or Texas during tough economic times. There are a lot of people on the sidelines that have been waiting for some sort of buyers market, and were starting to see that unfold. There are multiple ways to look at it, and I love to talk about it as an agent and a self proclaimed analyst lol. All i know is there will always be transactions in any sort of market, and im here to help. My clients I informed to sell these past few years are thrilled with my advice, and have been using that $ in off market investments I find them, and the high occupancy rates due to more renters is just a win win for them. @owenbrat on Instagram always here to help anyone interested in South Florida real estate, wishing everyone the best in times like this.

Imagine buying a house in 2009 thinking that prices of housing bottomed out, LOL

[@resnonverba3351]

EXACTLY 👌👏👏👏

[@christopherboeve]

Even if you plan to live in a house 5-10 years it’s still not recommended if you can’t afford the inflated price of the home, which is the most important factor in the payment, not the interest rate. Currently, majority of homes in the US are considered to be “unaffordable”.

[@TRIIGGAVELLI]

Im 34 and I'm so far off from owning the home I would want to, not a mansion or anything like that just a nice house. I would literally have to start robbing banks.

[@MortgageMike305]

You may be able to sooner than you think 🤔

[@TRIIGGAVELLI]

@@MortgageMike305 You calling me a bank robber? I mean probably

[@jonathantaylor6926]

Yeah I feel you.. even a middle class home where I live is $750K... even a million dollar home really isn't that impressive.

[@MemphisKennedy-xy5ye]

Why not, they're robbing us

I'm in Miami right now visiting. The humidity is MISERABLE. Can't wait to go back to Los Angeles

You never own your home, you rent it from the state and the local school district. If you don’t believe me, don’t pay your taxes and see if you own your home.

[@billiamc1969]

Very well stated

[@alextate9531]

By the same logic, you rent your income from the government as well. It’s really fucked.

[@tableleg704]

@@alextate9531 yes, that would be correct or you could look at it as slavery but with extra steps

[@Dantursi1]

Newbies need to learn the ropes, know how much risk they can handle and diversify their portfolio. Some folks get help from money experts or do their homework before making investment moves. It's all about being smart with your funds.

My husband took on a mortgage to buy our first home last year and did he buy it overpriced the house and farm, yes but not because we want to pay more but at least we were lucky to, its just we're not going to wait for something that is not a guarantee, which is why I wouldn't be surprised to see all these people who are waiting to buy a house, waiting for the prices to go down be the very same people in a year or so still waiting for prices to go down and guess what folks age and time doesn't wait with you, dont know about the rest of ya but we wanna live, experience and enjoy life NOW.. everything is overinflated in life now, every little thing and sure stuff might go down a little but it'll never be like what it was before and that applies to the housing market as well sure some places will drop a bit and obviously there will be some places that will always remain high in demand depend on locations but still overall be high priced and lower quality builds now. Dont forget as a factor there are elite entities who also want life to be unaffordable in Society aka "you'll own nothing and be happy".. which is why we're seeing our country, cities and towns going in this direction.... don't get me wrong I hope Society proves me wrong and prices fall to Affordable levels but just from what I've experienced in life so far it just seems like the american dream which was the house, the family, the car, the conveniences, the long life career and overall affordability is one big tease now that is constantly dangled before us, to always barely have it within your grasp and think your fine and flourishing only for it to be yanked back further from you...

[@seanwhalen8881]

25 basis points wont do much at all, its already basically priced in to mortgage rates. Fed needs to cut 200+ basis points minimum before we have a rush of buyers.

[@zee9er]

Yet the rent prices continue to rise
