Hey! This market STINKS!
While the housing market rebounded in early 2022, now there is a lot of uncertainty. This means that buyers should tread carefully when entering the real estate market. One way to do this is by paying close attention to bearish trends- which you can certainly now no matter what the government claims about “not inevitable recession” especially since food, fuel, and housing are excluded from the typical index to measure recession.
If It Looks Like A Bear Market...
All the political games aside, it’s beginning to look a lot like 2007 and 2008 and the musical chairs effect of builders being caught in the crosshairs of supply disruptions and increased cost of materials, and slow-down of home sales as interest rates have skyrocketed, if this market were Kansas weather, you’d be getting ready to head to the tornado shelter.
Some economists are predicting that there will be a massive recession in 2022. It’s only a prediction if you refuse to acknowledge some of the most important factors in determining a recession just like economists are doing along with the government, pretending that something isn’t a cost factor in the average American’s budget when it absolutely is.
Is It A Bear Or Not? – Oh Come On! Of Course, It’s A Bear!
And as a Realtor, you need to be ready for a massive market correction- like yesterday.
If, I mean when this happens, it’s likely, I mean it’s assured, that the housing market will once again be severely impacted.
This is something that buyers need to be prepared for.
This is something that sellers need to be prepared for.
This is something agents need to be prepared for.
In addition, interest rates could still rise even more in 2022. Sub 3% rates are gone like memories of warm summer days in January. This makes it more difficult than any time in the last decade for buyers to afford a home. As such, it’s important to consider all of your options before entering the market.
Future Don't Care Bears
