  • @eviek3809
    @eviek3809 Před 2 lety +4

    Just to be clear, you can either sell high and buy high for lower interest rates with more people to buy your house but more competition to any house you want to offer on, or sell low and buy low with higher interest rates and fewer buyers to buy your house but fewer people to compete with when putting an offer on a house you want. So it’s quite comparable I think.

      At 5:16 he says "if you have someplace else to live until this thing cools off" then it's no problem. So theoretically thinking, you should be fine if you are willing to give up your home and live in a rental. But note that in this video Dave also says that housing prices have rarely gone down and we might not see this go back to "normal" before the pandemic. Personally, I'd keep the home, continuing paying it off and investing in it's equity.

Also, just making meals and going shopping keeps my mom busy. And yes, the maintenance of a home sometimes is a lot and sometimes is little.

    I'm in New Jersey. We bought our house for 240, it's probably about 180 left. Our house has supposedly gone up in value to around 400, at least according to all the websites like Zillow. I wanted to convince my wife to sell the house and move out of New Jersey to somewhere cheaper. If you could take that 200+ in profit and buy a house outright or at least have a very very small mortgage. But my wife doesn't want to leave the area. Smh

    If you have the ability to compete with other buyers , it is a good time to upgrade. Put a large amount or all of your equity into the new house so at the end of the deal you don't have much more debt but you do have much more house for almost the same amount of payment 😉

      A crash of 20%? So you mean prices next year will be what they were earlier this year? That's not really going to hurt anyone who buys today. At the absolute worst it would temporarily pull back to the price point at the start of the pandemic. It's not as if everyone's house is suddenly going to be worth $1. A slowdown in appreciation is far more likely than a crash. And even that will only be temporary.
