I've really started wondering about the results of a persistent decline in real estate values-

I’ve been wondering the same thing

It's been 20 years of ridiculously low rates. It may not last forever, but it's

With Democrats piling onto Trumps spend-thriftiness it makes me think Carter-like Stagflation

Yeah I have thought the same thing. The biggest difference is we have yet

Very difficult to predict but here are some thoughts

Good thoughts. Inflation sort of HAS to happen if you want to reduce debt &/or

jkccoug

3/31/21 11:14pm

True, but the problem is that spending will continue to outpace inflation

It always seems to

That is the thing slowing me down on selling. If *general* inflation is coming, then

How could prices not fall significantly when moratorium on evictions ends?

Depends. I haven't seen data on just how big this is. how much stuff are we

jkccoug

I think the numbers are massive, personally, but inflation could be massive too

Jericho

If nothing else, the reality is that there is essentially NO for sale inventory

jkccoug

I would say that we are DUE for a market correction, but I have been saying that

I have thought that too. Been wondering lately though if the last few years have

I believe last I saw 1.4% of mortgages were 4 or more months behind which

Because the banks don't want to foreclose on a bunch of people.

Not if they don't want a bunch of those mortgages they're holding to suddenly become worthless

BeyondTheMark

You'd be surprised. Some banks who sold their mortgages to fannie mae but retained servicing, like Wells Fargo, have

vegasnative

I don't think there will be that many foreclosures. Prices have gone up enough

Home prices are sticky.

BostonCougar

3/31/21 11:32pm

It makes sense if interest rates increase

Fargo

3/31/21 11:36pm

Not so. From 1970 to 1980, mortgage rates rose from about 7% to about 14%. During that time, home prices rose by nearly

But that is the Stagflation era- inflation generally was outpacing interest rates and salaries were

This makes sense if those were the only factors, but interest rates increase whe

Rates can't go much higher for very long.

a crash in the stock market would also affect the housing market, especially

Inventory is apparently still very tight (link)

There’s almost like a sort of deflation happening in the housing market

There’s a real estate crash coming and it’s going to be a hard one. My bet is

What other housing crash have you experienced in your life besides 2007-2010?

cougarfann888

There are some markets that are susceptible to crashes. PHX, Miami, Vegas

Aside from the recent ones, the one in the 80s was really significant but

Not anytime soon

I agree on the crash but don't think it will be as hard or as long as 2007-8
