Makes ya think….. 🙄🙄🙄

As we start to see some real estate markets cool off and basically start their return to “normal” a lot of people are freaking out and the media is just loving it. The headlines are coming out daily. Just keep this in mind and base any decisions for you and your family on facts, not headlines or feelings. This is not 2008!!

What the media said vs what actually happened…

Starting with a 300k home:
Ya
🏡Oct 2015 “Housing today- a bubble larger than 2006” - we saw 5.1% appreciation - home is now worth 315k

🏡Aug 2016 “We’re in a housing bubble” - we saw 5.4% appreciation - home is now worth 332k

🏡Nov 2017 “Homeownership doesn’t build wealth, a study finds” - we saw 6.1% appreciation- home is now worth 353k

🏡Sept 2018 “It’s better to rent than buy in today’s housing market” - we saw 4.1% appreciation - home is now worth 367k

🏡July 2019 “The housing market is about to shift in a bad way for buyers” - we saw 4.0% appreciation- home is now worth 382k

🏡Dec 2019 “Next year will be hard on the housing market, especially in big cities” - we saw 16% appreciation in 2020- home is now worth 443k

🏡July 2021 “Housing boom is over as new home sales fall to pandemic lows” - we saw 18% appreciation - home is now worth 523k‼️‼️‼️

Had fear consumed this buyer back in 2015 they would’ve lost out on 223k in value gain, not even accounting for the seven years of payments made on that mortgage creating even more equity.

Remember, the rate on rent is 100%….😳

Make your financial decisions based on logic, reason and expert opinions.

Don’t make decisions based on fear as you may miss out on big opportunities.

Nine years in a row real estate continues to be rated as the BEST long term wealth strategy💰💵 don’t buy into the hype the media is portraying!!

DM or email questions anytime. We're here when the time is right!
