Are you sitting on the sidelines waiting for an 0809-housing market crash? Well, I think you’re going to be waiting a while. Right now, the national interest rate is like 7%.
So, talking to a lot of first-time homebuyers, investors, people wanting to buy up. Their concern is that the rate is high and well, it’s actually not the rate that’s the issue its low supply and appreciating process.
So right now, a lot of people have, you know, interest rates on houses that naturally appreciated to 3%. So for them it doesn’t make sense to actually sell their homes and double up on their mortgages, right, unless they’re financially savvy enough to do so.
But the bigger concern is, is that okay, even if the interest rates were to drop, you’re going to see people with bigger pockets, especially those from out of country big time investors. You name it, be able to buy these properties, even though the rate goes down.
So demand is going to go up, prices are still going to go up, even though the interest rate goes down. So it’s not going to matter when to actually buy is to take action now.
 But that’s also dependent on your situation. So if you would like to argue that then make sure to comment. I’d love to hear your thoughts.
