    Mortgage rates are currently at an all time high since 2000(23 years) and based on statistics on inflation, we might see that number skyrocket further, a 30-year fixed rate was only 5% this time last year, so do I just keep waiting for a housing crash before buying or redirect my focus to the equity market

      The stock market is no different, to maintain profit you need to have some in-depth knowledge on the market. I mostly just buy and hold stocks, but my portfolio has been mostly in the red for quite awhile now. Unfortunately to be able to make good gains, you’ll need to be consistent and restructure your portfolio frequently.

What advice do you have for choosing the best buying time? On the one hand, I continue to read and see trading earnings of over $500k each week. On the other side, I keep hearing that the market is out of control and experiencing a dead cat bounce. Why does this happen?

    Being "underwater" is psychologically devastating and causes people to do irrational things. I saw it first-hand between 2008 and 2010. I had friends who could totally afford their monthly mortgage payments. But when their houses were underwater, they felt like they lost money. And because the Housing Industrial Complex had brainwashed the public that owning a home was the greatest source of wealth, all these owners no longer saw a need to keep their houses when the value declined. Had they held onto their homes, they would have been above water within just a few years. And in 10 more years, they would have considered themselves millionaires due to the insane home appreciation.

      I have friends who bought in Scottsdale in 2006/3007. It was high for the time but wanted out of San Diego, and they could afford the payment no problem. They were under water in 2010, but they have it all back plus after 15 years. I think they refied to a 10 year when rates were at the lowest . They never bought above their means. My wife and I bought our home with the annual of one salary vs both incomes. In case something happened to one of us or our jobs, there can still afford the home.

      I agree that knowing the skill is only part of it and it alone won’t save them. But they have to be willing to at least try to help themselves and apply those skills into action to attain tangible results. Learning how to adapt to current market conditions and implementing better spending habits to advance while being at a disadvantage is the most challenging part of it all.

      Sadly financial literacy is not taught in grade school or even high school. I didn’t learn financial literacy until I actually needed to build credit in my late 20s; and it was not from school. The only financial knowledge my Asian parents knew was to work hard to make money to get bills payed and save along the way. Financial literacy is a personal journey because nobody can build anybody else’s credit score. One would have to be motivated to even learn about money management, budgets and basic economics.

The banksters that caused the whole meltdown by pushing cheap credit to people that could not survive a downturn, all the banksters were bailed out and that’s how they bought up all the foreclosures. 2008 repeat.

    In Minnesota the recent property evaluations are confusing people, unless the state is purposefully robbing its constituents by doubling property taxes in which case it should be labeled theft. For 13 years my property evaluation has increased roughly 15% over that period of time, then last year my property evaluation was raised by over 30% and this year my property evaluation has basically doubled what my home was evaluated only two years prior! Our property taxes were increased two years ago as well, and now there is a new 5% levy I've never heard anything about, but apparently these are the new standards of our leadership. This should be listed as theft upon Minnesota residents!!!

    Afraid it is going to get bad. In our 50s and bought a home after 10 years of renting just a few months ago. Instead of buying what we could afford we purchased a home in Indiana for 134000. Not a dream home but one that is comfortable. I feel sorry for all those who have 300k to 400k and above mortgages they are barely able to pay for now when the next domino falls which will be unemployment jump. We could of bought a 400k home but feel this was much wiser

Sometimes when I pass the more expensive houses that we qualified for I think about how I would still have a mortgage if we had bought one!

    Keep in mind that during the 80’s people were encouraged to save due to the interest rates. Right now there’s very little incentive to save because those who are saving are watching those who are reckless taking it in. I’ve been trying to save for a home and it’s been discouraging to watch prices continue to not budge because there’s people willing to get into a mortgage where they’re paying 40% of their income. It’s insane.

      To balance out your real estate holdings, I suggest investing in equities. If you're cautious, even the worst recessions can present fantastic buying opportunities. Additionally, volatility can produce fantastic short-term purchase and sell opportunities. This is not financial advise, but you should buy immediately away because money isn't king right now!

If housing costs continue to drop and, for whatever reason, they can no longer afford the property and it goes into foreclosure, they have no equity since, even if they try to sell, they will not make any money. I believe that many individuals will experience this, especially given the impending mass layoffs and rapidly rising living expenses.

    I've been buying and selling real estate all my life. Your mortgage should be about 2.5 times your salary. You can go more, BUT you are inviting financial disaster. The average salary in the US is $63k so on your own you should be looking at a mortgage of about $150k The average household income is $75k and should look at a mortgage of about $190k.
    The MEDIAN home sale price in US is $433k. So the average person/family can not afford the average home. You'd need to make up the difference in a cash down payment. I can almost guarantee anyone making an average income does not have a snowballs chance in hell at saving $250k to pay a mortgage down to something they can afford.
    Be careful looking at averages and medians. They are NOT the same but can be close. Another word for average is MEAN not median.

      The down payment i calculated she just put down on it made me so nauseous that i refuse to ask her the actual number.
      Even now that ive gotten my series 7 certification, very few of my actual friends seem to actually ever listen to me until AFTER their financial decisions have blown up in their faces unfortunately 😒
      Ugh and the ignorant realtors insisted to her that 7.4% was a good deal because "they" all agree that interest rates will go even higher.
      They dont even understand that the Fed only controls the federal funds lending rate which extends primarily to banks.
      The bond market, US treasuries and their relationships with global trading countries are what dictates interest rates for the most part.
      And though the Fed historically lags behind the yields by 6-12 months, the most significant yields are finally demonstrating a exhaustion of this multi year rally.
      Rates will begin going down within a year. If they dont, then our status as the global currency is going to be in serious trouble which would have global far reaching consequences far beyond anything we've seen in 100 years

I sold it for $525k and used the equity to purchase my forever home for $640k (4,300 sq. ft.) In Q1 of 2022 with a 15% down payment at a 3.25% interest rate. I used the 5% to upgrade the house, and it appraised at $740k, which is low based on current comps.
    Not everyone is in financial trouble; many of us are doing well. Even if my house's value drops below $540k, I wouldn't sell because what goes down will always come back up. People need to be patient and focus on increasing their income and save more.

    Those of us who bought a half a million dollar home isn't because we "wanted a better house". I am one of the statistics that moved to Texas during covid. My intention was to buy a $350k house like you said. However, those same houses that were $350k shot up to $500k and it became impossible to find a $350k home that wasn't in shambles. The first home I made an offer on was in fact $330k. After inspecting it, however, it required over $100k in repairs! I wanted to buy a home that was move in ready and NOT a fixer upper. After looking at over 80 homes in the San Antonio area, I was forced to buy one in the $450k to $500k bracket, if I did not want a fixer upper. Luckily, my husband and I both pull income making us a double income household.
