I'm a total retard so tell me if I have this right

People, in the face of 7-8% interest for fixed rates, are going in on ARMs because those still offer 3-5%, not realizing that in 3 years they'll jack it up to 15%?

It wont end well for the people getting the ARMs.
People who scooped a fixed rate mortgage before the interest rate hikes will make out like bandits since average homes price will likely surge to ~$800K on the back of ARMs and continued supply shock.
Then Bobos will be able to grab some nice $600K "cheapies" once 2008 round two happens.

It still happens, but only retards and degenerates get them in the current environment, and especially after 2008.
It CAN be smart to get an ARM when it's reasonable to assume that the fed has capped out on hiking rates and will only cut for the forseeable future (e.g. immediately *after* the Volcker hikes), but because voluntary refinancing is an option with fixed rate it still errs on the side of reckless to choose the ARM.

Unless you're stupidly rich, living on your own seems like a fool's endeavor. I'm at a point in my life where I could afford to move out of my parent's house into my own place, but holy shit it's expensive just for the privilege of having your own personal shelter. I would be spending most of my income just for that privilege and that's so fucked up. It's not just that, living on your own is making a promise that you will continue giving away most of your income for the next 30+ years.

Housing crashes in slow motion remember that in 2008 housing didn't bottom until 2011-2012. There are price cuts all over right now but we won't know how bad this will be for a year or so. (if there even is a crash).

The issue right now is that supply is low so there's no real reason to lower prices. Also with higher rates people are reluctant to sell at a loss and then only be able to get a mortgage that has a much higher rate than they had before.

So my view is that in the short term prices will remain static but the volume of sales will greatly diminish. Home sales and flips will be a fraction of what they were six months ago.

The interest is the free money for the bank, which extra principle cuts short, especially during the front loaded interest period. Even in an inflationary environment extra principal is ok. Even 100$ will cut out years on your mortgage. Maybe land lords see this differently.

You're gonna make it friend. I keep posturing this over and over and all the shills on /biz/ screech but the best time to buy a house is when you have the means to afford one and want one. Nobody knows the future. Houses are historically an awful investment but we just had a 10 year bullrun on housing. But what is the alternative? Live in an apartment and constantly move? Even in 08,prices only dumped like 30 percent. Maybe we get more but I'm increasingly doubtful that this is going to happen.

I think I'm gonna try and buy a home next year regardless. I don't care about it. I want to have a garden, pets, my own space to live. Or I may buy my mom a place and then when she moves I will rent it out. Idk.

Speculation on housing is the ultimate boomer myopic plan for societies. If you make things hard or impossible for young people to own homes and start families then you start a civilization death spiral where your population collapses. Western governments use mass immigration to mitigate this but in the long run experience cultural dilution and destruction of precious genetic stock that is gone forever.

“A society grows great when old men plant trees in whose shade they shall never sit.”

Housing speculation is cutting down those trees for profit.

Out of control inflation and gas prices are already eating up all of the reckless speculators and people that were house poor and barely making it before expenses multiplied. As the recession/layoffs/hiring freezes/no raises continues those people will start to default more and more.

ARMs are probably a bad idea, but they aren't that bad. The horror stories from 2008 weren't normal ARMs, they were pick-a-payment mortgages. You could get a loan for a house that allowed you to pick one of three payments - positive amortization, interest only, or negative amortization. Many people only chose the lowest payment, and after the outstanding balance reached, say, 110% of the original loan the options were withdrawn and you could only make positive amortizing payments. These are the people with "ARMs" that had their payments double. I don't see a lot of discussion about this probably because it makes the homeowners look like fucking retards. Anyways this type of mortgage is no longer obtainable.

People LEAVE the country during a recession (or, at least, the influx slows). People will live in their cars.

I live with my gma in California, but I manage her finances, do her taxes etc. Currently he has a 4.5% interest rate loan on like 300k, the house is now "worth" like 1.6 million (mainly because my late gpa took out money to invest, etc).

Anyways I looked into her refinancing at the height of covid for like 2.5%, but the "pay no fees" refinancing fees would have been too high, it only would have started making her money in 13 years, which I didn't think was likely (shes 84). Plus the mortgage payment write-off helps her a lot with taxes.

Was this a smart move?

Don’t. It could go as high as 13% in a year or two. No one talks about the 80s and their 14% interest rates that lasted a few years. Took many more to slowly come down.
The only time to get adjustable mortgage loans is if it’s above 11% in my opinion. Otherwise you could be wiped.
Remember, our m1 reports have been so bad that they changed the way they do the M1 reports last year.
It’s likely to get worse than the 80s too because we’ve lost supremacy in the world. Look what happened with the Saudis few months back with oil purchases. Look what’s happening with India. US petrol dollar is under threat which puts other aspects of the economy at risk.
