USA: Why ‘Price Stability’ Is a Myth
After 21 years guiding clients through every shift in the real estate market, I’ve seen firsthand how the idea of ‘price stability’ simply doesn’t hold up—especially in the US economy. When prices jump in one area, like college tuition or event tickets, it often means people are shifting their spending, not that everything is getting more expensive across the board. Think about how affordable technology has transformed our lives, yet other essentials—like a night in a hotel or a seat at the big game—keep rising in cost. The truth is, no central bank can deliver true price stability because prices reflect countless choices and global trends. As your trusted advisor, I believe it’s important to see that changing prices can signal progress, not just loss. A steadier dollar might free up investments and make some purchases more accessible, but scarcity will always drive value elsewhere. My role is to help you navigate these complexities—so you can make confident decisions, whether buying or selling in a world where lasting price stability is more myth than reality.
