The Next 12 Months | Real Estate Market Crash Or Recovery?
DESCRIPTION:
Jeremy and Jesse ask the burning question on everyone's mind: are we headed for a real estate market crash or recovery? The real estate market is experiencing a tale of two markets, where buyers and sellers are waiting for opposite outcomes.
• Buyers and sellers both playing a waiting game for different reasons
• Western US currently has 190,000 sellers but only 122,000 buyers
• Current market more balanced than either buyer or seller dominated
• Property values still significantly higher than pre-pandemic levels
• Even a 0.5% mortgage rate drop only saves $133/month on a $400k home
• 38% of American homeowners have no mortgage
• 50% of homeowners have 50% or more equity in their homes
• Rate lock effect keeping many potential sellers from listing their homes
• Major foreclosure crisis statistically impossible in current market conditions
• Waiting for perfect market timing often costs more than it saves
