🏠 The 2008 recession & how this time is different..🔑
Recession does not equal housing crisis. Home prices appreciated in 4 of the last 6 recessions. Not every recession is a housing crisis..Let's talk about the 2008 recession compared to today's market:
Today’s housing market is nothing like it was in 2008. What happened then was caused by cheap debt, shady lending practices, and financial acrobatics that ended with too many borrowers in mortgages they couldn’t afford.
Step back from 2008, and you see that home prices have appreciated in 4 of the last 6 recessions. They only fell twice—slightly in the early 90s (1.9%) and almost 20% in 2008.
Not every recession is a housing crisis. So if you’re looking to buy, sell, invest, or flip, here's what to do: silence the naysayers, look at the stats, and find an agent who can help you make on-time and informed decisions in 2022.
