Bond manager Mark Kiesel sold his California home in 2006, when he presciently predicted the housing bubble would pop. He bought again in 2012, after U.S. prices fell more than 30% and found a floor.

Now, after a record surge in prices, Kiesel says the time to sell is once again at hand.

Big Short 2.0

$1 trillion to $2 trillion to be injected into housing by August via GSE Home Equity financing. Election Year!

Inflationary? Not until after the election, of course.

Also, only about 15% of home loans are originated by private lenders today. If Freddie & Fannie were shut down today, the entire mortgage industry would disappear.

The fed prints money, they loan this .oney at huge discounts to banks, blackrock is a bank, they will borrow this money, they will by the homes.

This is why deficits matter. The more our government prints the more enslaved our nation is

I get the printing part but, you’re saying that Blackrock will be given the money to purchase 1-2 trillion dollars worth of homes?

As I understand it, Freddiemac is being given the go ahead to finance 2nd mortgages and home equity loans as a way to get people to spend their equity.

How do they normally raise funding? They have collectively, ~$5 trillion in assets on their books already. Where did they raise the funding to get to that?

They are GSEs.

There's a huge reset coming to the Car Market as well.

It illustrates why there's no Fed Money Printing their way out of this.

Should have saved the video, but there's a used car dealer who buys at auction, showing a 2021 Tundra with 73k miles going for $72k ,,, "That's almost a dollar a mile!"

There are numerous examples of used cars (30k mi+) going for about as much as the new ones, but once you factor in there are no interest rate teasers for the used cars but there are dealer incentives and special rates for the new ones, it's MORE expensive to buy the used car with the 30k miles than the new model.

The cheapest at the auction is one of those thumbdrive sized cars with 2 seats and 40k miles, going for $9,900.

Same shit in the car market as in the used house market. The new construction is often cheaper than the used due to incentives homeloaners can't offer buyers but the builders/manufacturers can.

The car market is rapidly deteriorating and for the first time, $1000/month payments are now common. Problem is, people soon realize they can't afford that and are returning the vehicles... and the dealership can't move them since the trade-ins and the unsold are already a problem with not moving.

The correction is coming.

Are cars returnable to dealership? How does one do this, just drop off the car at the dealership where the buyer purchased it from?

You are correct. Car market should either normalize or possibly go down in the next 3 to 6 months. I am actively in the market for a new or used vehicle.

Can recommend the VW Tiguan. Half the price of a pimped up highlander, 80% of the space. Interior well done

Lease or get the weight write off. I'll probably lease next. I'm under 12k miles per year now. Used to be 35k. A to B for me, so I really don't give a shit as long as it works or I can write more off. No fucks given about acceleration, speed or any of the that crap. I like big SUV's that can tow. So I only have about 4-5 models that are realistic for my needs.

I sold VWs when I was a kid. I would never ever buy one.

Considering a RAM V8 for boat towing and dragging my lawn mower etc., to rental properties. Also a Prius Prime (never would have guessed I'd say that) as a grocery gitter. I expect the RAM to have problems but they are way overbuilt, sitting on lots everywhere so I expected steep discounts soon and are one of the few V8s left.

Right now, I wait... I need to check the toyota for cameras facing the driver. I don't want that shiite.

Voluntary Repossession.

Then there is a secondary/tertiary market where the dealer sells it to wholesalers who often sell their excess inventory to used dealers.

Speaking of which, CARMAX profit was down something like 25% from last year

That's why they are so much cheaper. They're all manufactured in Mexico anyways. We've only had it for a year and it was pretty much brand new, but so far it drives great and is very comfortable. Well built, too. Love old camrys and old Volvo station wagons, indestructible. But see no reason to choose a modern highlander for twice the price.

San Antonio makes Toyota trucks. I had an executive from Japan rent one of my houses for a couple of years. Even so, I'd want one made in Japan.

I rented an Audi (really a VW) for a trip to Houston in February and it was a phenom ride. I had a pal who was a mechanic in the early naughties and he told me he charged double to work on those. They were made in Europe, shipped here, halfway taken apart and the reassembled with Standard hardware instead of metric. So he also had to use 2 sets of tools at the same time. Oh and they break down. A lot.

I'm thinking about that too. I was test driving their top end camrys just before covid. Well actually during covid too. It was hot, I had to wear a stupid mask and it fogged my glasses so I couldn't see well. They have that weird diagonal on the dash I'd have to get used to and no place overhead to store sunglasses (sun roof) like my honda.

They came out with a larger computer screen since then. I'm also wondering if 2024 has the driver facing camera and other BS our govt said they need in 2026 to disable my car or whatever our govt is forcing on them. Oh! And lots of people are starting to get their insurance rates jacked because they sell your data to insurance companies. I haven't had an accident in 35 years but I do have a lead foot. I'd want to disable all that shit.

My honda is 22 years old and hasn't had any major problems, I could fix them all myself but I let a shop replace an oil pan jiffy lube stripped out. They aren't built like that anymore.

I really just don't want any of these stupid 4 bangers with turbos hybrid or other voodoo even if they are faster. More moving parts, they won't last as long.

Discount Cab in Arizona. They had 200 Prius in the fleet and routinely ran them for 300k miles.

I think this is the case anywhere you’re able to finance anything. A looong time ago, I had a 1995 Mercury Cougar (I would buy another one if I could find a low mileage one. I loved that car) and the transmission was acting up. I took it to AAMCO. I wasn’t sure I wanted to fix it and as fast as he could, the shop owner pulled out a finance option. I laughed in his face. Then I took it to another shop and they put a new gasket on the transmission housing(?) and the car ran perfectly for another 75k miles. Everyone is trying to fuck you. Best to teach your kids this fact early on.

Always been the case. Reason why everyone thinks I'm an ass hole. I'm actually nice in person, but if I think someone is being an A-hole the gloves come off. Car dealerships are the worst. When they try to sell all the BS I just say "shut up" most the time. Do you want "x, y, z" package? A prompt shut up. My wife is rather ruthless in this realm as well. My kids are getting there too. Don't know if that's good or bad.. lol.

A family friends is looking to get a reverse mortgage. I think they are getting $80,000 and they have a $1 million home with no mortgage.

Its a good way for a senior citizen (age 62 or more) to stay in their home and get access to cash in order to pay for operating or holding costs like roof repairs, property tax, etc.

The home was built in 2002 and is in the Colorado mountains on 5 acres.

I read the interest rate is around 7.5% for the reverse mortgage.

So in 20 years, the reverse mortgage loan of $80,000 in present value would be around $340,000.

I would safely assume the house would increase in value by around 4% each year during the 20 years to $2.19 million.

So the $340,000 would need to be deducted at closing from the $2.19 million if the home is sold in 20 years.
