Housing bubble?


Recommended Posts

"experts" say no but houses are selling at all time high and lumber prices are adding another $36,000 to the price of a new house. 

Was just listening to a story about how millennials are buying houses (over priced) they probably can't afford on their salaries with as little money down as possible. This sounds awfully familiar to another movie I saw about 12 years ago.

I have been warning. This time around refi on a loan won’t bail you out like it did 12 , 20, 35, 40 years ago.

oh and dump your crypto before many countries try to kill it due to being a place where hackers get their ransomware pay days.

I have a trailing stop loss on my crypto. But it's still going up so I am riding it out.

Lol now visa has a card you can use crypto to pay your bills and . But yeah crioto is going away lmfao . The reason it exists is to not have to deal with govenment bullshit monetary systems . They can't kill it the more they would try the more popular it will become.  But I get it you are old and just don't understand

Inventory, or lack thereof, tells much of the story.

With 2.5 on a 30 yr is it any shock there is no inventory? Rentals are going to be hard to find in short order . Almost every one I know with single family rentals have cashed in . 

Pretty sure they say 1 point in the interst rate drops the value of homes like 30 grand ?

The realtor that I bought from contacted me recently about possibly selling. She told me people are showing up with $30-50k in cash to pay above the asking price just to secure a home. It’s getting desperate here.

About another month or so then I hope it crashes hard.  Booyah!

Yeah I am flush and waiting to swoop . In a much better place this time around to take advantage of the situation. 

Few of my customers made millions on the 08 crash.  I spent 60 days in FL with one of them as he was buying enough forclosed units to get controlling votes of the board and make them rentals till the market turned . He was buying 5 or 6 at a time from the banks and litteraly steeling them . Most the people just left all there shit because they were vacation places. 

He had just sold new York baggel chips and old London foods before the crash and had a few million to play with

I see the price curve beginning to flatten, but there some clear signs that this isn’t a bubble. 

It will pop people are way overpaying . Interst goes up just 2 points everything sold in the last 2 yrs will be way way under water.  And if we learned anything in 09 was that there really was no major consequence to saying fuck it and walking away . The vacation homes will be first again . Fucking people gave me 110k more for my cabin than the neighbors sold hers for a yr before and they are pretty equal. And she made out like a bandit the neighbors were sort of pissed at me  after closing the assessor was knocking on all there doors lol

The crisis of “09 was driven primarily by fraud in liars loans and heavily leveraged MBS. That’s not present in any large form today. Millions of loans were written with no proof of borrowers income.

And now they are way way way  over valuing homes to get them in to the loan . The apprasers not playing ball are not getting the work . The inspectors finding issues are black listed.

I see it weekly . I work with a lot of these people.  1 day of our week is nothing but dealing with inspectors make tge buyer feel warm and fuzzy  hit lists for realtors.  There is plenty of talk and jokes about what is going on
