Is this a good time to buy real estate?

Just be sure that its an income generating
property (no shit i know) but just buying real estate to hold and hope the price goes up is an absolute waste and you will get burned as we are getting to the top of the market. Its worth to buy even right now if you can be revenue positive on it. all depends on credit and down payment which discern your monthly payment and as long as you're cash flow positive then you are building equity over the 10 years while the market is down with a bit on the side for yourself. Then you can refinance into more cash flow generating properties.

I just bought a cheap af house that I can pay off within 10 years (I'll have to budget). It needs some work, mostly cosmetic and I'm making it look nice. So by the time I need something bigger, I'll have upgraded the every living piss out of it and should fetch a much better price than what I paid for it.

Real estate is a generational market, moves and money are made in over a period of years.

That said, every boomer couple who worked since 1960 has multiple families and they plan on selling them for retirement OR gifting them to their children as inheritance (more common).

The likelihood of millions of millennials suddenly becoming cash rich enough to afford $120k+ down payments is slim. Also factor in that children (age 49 average today) who inherit these homes will not be living in them, they already are way into middle age and have bought homes. So that leaves two scenarios

A massive dump of 1960s - 2000s homes so the children can get a nice $400k lump sum (avg)

Or these children will rent out or otherwise contract a company to rent out these properties.

The thing about real estate crashes is that they are localized, even in 2007 the westcoast only took a small burp in the bubble without popping and the prices have only continued to rise for a number of reasons. The market is cyclical and crashes every 10-20 years, but housing can be pretty unaffected if the area in question is not inflated and even where it is the bubbles can be sustained depending on if there is demand. This demand can also be artificially created by banks who do not want homes in certain neighborhoods to devalue and will actually buy properties from homeowners above already inflated prices in order to avoid foreclosure and the rest of the houses in the area dropping in value. It honestly dosent matter when the crash is as long as the property is generating more income then the monthly payment.

Long way of saying it dosent really mater when the general crash is as long as you can pull rent at a high enough rate and the area is in demand.

The sad part is my dad bought in at "bargain cheap" at 350k a decade ago in the shithole 909.

Now its worth low 500's...but that doesn't even cover the property taxes. I'm sure that boomer retard has re-fi'ed by now, as he always does every 5 years for trips and shit.

It's going to be a bloodbath, and they're not even that much overinflated technically. Although I still dont get the HOUSE IS AN APPRECIATING ASSET meme. GD Js.

>> No.13771322

>>13771229
Both scenarios are happening simultaneously and mutually effect each other in the market. If you cant get a decent rent, the place is sold. If you can get a decent rent it is kept until you cannot and the place is sold, but the more places that are sold makes rent higher and the more places that are rented in a neighborhood makes the price increase, and makes selling outright more favorable.

The magic of self regulating markets ensure that real estate never dumps unless the location itself becomes unfavorable and vice versa.

As long as the local economy is robust a house will always go up in price over time. thats why its an appreciating asset. but they key is, as always, location location location.

My folks bought their 2000sq ft townhome in 2000 for $180, just sold for $350.

Homes definitely appreciate if you aren't buying in a run down nig area or an area that is likely to be invaded by people from there. It's just a matter of how bad the town/county property tax is regarding how much money you can actually make.

How can you price in the everything bubble exactly?
Shits hitting the fan and we’ve already seen the big fuck off warning red arrow that is the yield curve inversion in treasuries that has magically foretold all previous recessions. Boomer QE money will desperately hold on however until it all goes pop.
Real estate will be one of the major casualties that has been a favourite of the boomer excess money. The Fed has backed itself in a corner, it can’t raise rates any higher because all other countries will struggle to repay national debt and people have been maxed out at ‘emergency’ low levels with loans and mortgages. They can’t lower the rates because of inflation going out of control and they’ve already used that trick in the toolbox. A global recession is coming, buy PMs, crypto and reflation stocks now and enjoy the ride.

The day those stock fiends start hanging themselves and the crypto skyrockets. WAshington is a bitch because of the massive property taxes but if you can get a decent house on the west side it should be cash money. A lot of peole in washington, namely the amazon bois are going for the zero money down craze with 3000 a month payments and that scares me. I would try to get multi family housing just because it scales well with rents but they are rare and usually gobbled up quickly. In terms of down payments it all depends on your credit and if its a rental or primary housing.

either way western washington is in a bubble, and the traffic is horrendous but if you dont need to commute to big tech i would get something further south along the 405 corridor if you can find work there but that commune is hell.

I wouldnt buy in washington imho

They're not a bad metric to consider. They unashamedly avoid highly brown areas, they throw cash about on property and they only lower crime and unfavourable business rates. A highly Chinese area might become a bit soulless but it won't be full on betting shops, drug addicts (Chinese don't give them a cent), and none white crime.
