Back in the day, when I purchased my first home to live-in; that was Miami in the early 1990s, first mortgages with rates of 8 to 9% and 9% to 10% were typical. 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. Pretty sure I'm not alone in my chain of thoughts.

[@JacquelinePerrira]

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.

Maf 500k house 1% value insurance. Prop taxes in prop tax only states 2-3% 10-15k Save 1% for maintenance. 4-5% for necessary maintenance of house 20-25k is the bare min you need to maintain a 500k house. Mortgage itself 500k at 2-3% let's say like B4 housing spike. It would be another 20-25k. If it's by today 6-7% it is 40-50k in interest per yr. And federal taxes. You can reduce your taxes because of mortgage interest paid 12k. But 25% is taxes. Let's say 20% with all deductions. You pay 12k in taxes. So cost of a house at 500k is 50k per yr min for 0% policy rates and 75k per yr min with 5% rates. Simply put median households cannot afford any local market house. As you see much more expensive than even renting when rent is far over priced as well. Van life is the best choice one has right now. While they try to make it illegal so they can prop up landlord thieves. For those that do not go the roommate route of course. One cannot afford to rent any half decent location that pays a reasonable wage as landlords know this and will charge the max rent they can steal from your paycheck If you buy now especially with a crap job you will go bankrupt. Do not buy anything.

at first I thought this was sarcasm but now I think it is ignorance. You must have been a child in 2007 when everybody was saying exactly what you just said. I hope you know how that market cycle played out

[@peaslead]

Lol, okay.

[@tobyk5149]

just keep your head in the sand and you will be fine

[@peaslead]

@@tobyk5149 I absolutely will be. I'll keep buying a property a year like I have for the last 2 years. This guy has been predicting a downfall for that whole time. Will a down turn come? I hope so, prices are too high. But real estate is still a good investment.

Imagine shamelessly promoting gambling app on a finance channel.

Back in the day, when I purchased my first home to live-in; that was Miami in the early 1990s, first mortgages with rates of 8 to 9% and 9% to 10% were typical. 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. Pretty 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.

It's often true that people underestimate the importance of financial advisors until they feel the negative effects of emotional decision-making. I remember a few summers ago, after a tough divorce, when I needed a boost for my struggling business. I researched and found a licensed advisor who diligently helped grow my reserves despite inflation. Consequently, my reserves increased from $275k to around $750k.

I will be happy getting assistance and glad to get the help of one, but just how can one spot a reputable one?

[@BridgetMiller-]

There are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘’ Melissa Terri Swayne” for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive. She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.

[@EmilyMoore-n7n]

I just looked her up on the web and I would say she really has an impressive background in investing. I will write her an email shortly.
