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.

West coast and hipster cities are going to eat shit. If someone didn't see that coming after covid you're not thinking. I've beaten this dead horse so many times here and I've 100% been right. There is and will be an exodus from cities. Covid accelerated that with work from home, millennials starting families, defund the police and just shitty politics.

Of the big negatives I think Phoenix has the highest probability of recovery. Denver has needed its ass handed to it for a decade now. The growth was not logical and likely ignited by legal pot. The west coast cities are obvious. Smart people generally don't live in a place led by morons, taxed at insane rates and political policy.

Regardless of interest rates I'm not losing selling my $1M home in Seattle and buying a $500k home in Spokane. Until people realize that most home buyers are white collar and can now work from home, major cities are going to take a beating. I lived the exodus from a major city like Chicago. The floor is much higher here for price loses. We're seeing price gains where I'm at and outside of 10% interest rates it's not stopping. It's not booming but we're hitting 3-5% increases annually still. Not losses.

In normally priced markets that are $700k or under, they should weather the storm relatively well. Where this will appear to be a crash is the cities and coastal areas.

Also 90% of owners bought when interest rates were sub 5% and that's not accounting for those that bought with cash. This isn't 2004-08 where we were giving strippers and unqualified people loans based off of undocumented income. Inventory shot above double digits into the 15-20 month range at that time. People might sell in cities to get the fuck out, but people are simply staying put.

I was personally managing 80+ listing during the crash. It was insane. Unless they're giving away loans again, I'm not see it. This is a demographic shift out of cities. Their prices tend to be higher. The national median AND city prices will go down. But it's not a crash.

My sister in law just got an all cash offer on her rental property. No price cuts. 2 weeks. Little cottage house near a lake in Northwest IL. I've never once said there won't be declines. People's perception of the market is from their location and they assume that's how it will be everywhere. It isn't and won't be...

I don't think you can expect a crash when inventory is low.

Lots of apartments going up in Panama City and Panama City Beach.

Seen a lot of apartment websites offering 1 month free for 13 month lease.

Seems like rental prices are back at 2021 levels without the 1 month discount.

I suspect rental rates will be frozen for next couple of years to allow wage growth to better align with past rental price increases.

That's way too fucking expensive for the panhandle.


Housing here in the Florida panhandle needs to drop about 20% from its peak levels. It is already 6% down based on Redfin research data.

1815   WookieMan   2023 Mar 1, 6:50pm  

I haven't looked at prices in the Western panhandle area. Pensacola, Navarre, Destin, Fort Walton, etc. Eastern areas like St. George Island are fucking nuts on all levels. Had a chance to buy our vacation rental at $450k that would rent for $2,200/wk. It's now $900k and easily rents for $5k/wk now.

Unique area. They zoned it so there couldn't be condo towers. Not the same, but similar to CA's prop 13. When you create scarcity prices go bonkers. That's one pocket that's going to likely see a downturn at least in FL that I know well. Rural tourist area. A lot of wealthy Floridians and Georgians go there because it's quiet, good beaches, good fishing, oysters, Appalachicola is a quaint little hipster town. Plantation has a landing strip. Really cool island and regret not investing there.

Things getting interesting at 7+% rates. Really a great news if it can sustain the rate for long. But again free printing press might not give a break which makes cash is worth less.

Housing Market Update: Home Prices Fall Annually For First Time In A Decade As Mortgage Rates Pass 7%
1822   AD   2023 Mar 3, 1:37pm  

Been looking to buy 300 shares in Invitation Homes and sell weekly covered calls for at least 1 year.

Invitation Homes buys residential real estate and then rents them. Another residential rental company of my interest that offers rentals (but has different business model) is Avalon Bay.

I think both are good long term holdings for real estate.

The problem with the Panhandle and Northern FL is you're going to run into your stereotypical white trash and southern blacks. So there will be cheap prices for housing inland. @ad could probably speak better to it than I can. My mom unloaded all her property down there over the last 3 years. So I have no stake or interest in knowing prices down there anymore. But you can pick up solid house 30-40 minutes from the beach for $250k, from Pensacola to Tallahassee.

Only been to Tallahassee twice. Didn't like the vibe. Spending 3 days in the Jacksonville area in a couple weeks. I've heard negative things. But I hear that about everywhere. I wouldn't make Tallahassee a destination though. Unless your kid wants to go to FSU. I'm sure outlying suburbs are nice, but Tallahassee proper was college town ghetto from my experience. Probably fun if you want to party and fool around with young college chicks. I would, just don't want to live there and I'm married. lol.

I think I just typed Tallahassee more times in this comment than my entire life...

True that. I like all those charming towns like Chipley, Cottondale, Crestview, Florala, Ponce De Leon, etc.

Paradise is living in Florida and only being within a 1 hour drive of Alabama. Roll Tide.

I live in that in IL. Around me is mostly white trash but most our friends are white collar. So not complaining. Uppity people as you say don't like that element. I love it. Real people and fun as long as they control their alcohol consumption and drug usage. I love the Panhandle. Have probably spent 2 years of my life there from Pensacola to St. George island.

My parents had multiple properties in Milton and Navarre. We did have a low rise 2/2 condo there for maybe 10 years at Navarre beach. Had some of the most ridiculous times there from 16-25. Speeding we could get from Chicago land down there in 12 hours. We got kids now and between pissing it's now turned into a 16-18 hour journey where we would usually stop in Trashville, TN.

We fly into PNS now. Southwest flies to Destin haven't tried PCB either. I love St. George but prices for rentals have gotten obscene.

He seemed a little daft to me at the time, was Logan right about EVERYTHING in the last few years?
I know my pessimistic nature has not served me well.
I am getting ready to buy a neighboring property, my first purchase in 10 years, that is likely a negative indicator for the market...

West coast and hipster cities are going to eat shit.

There's been lots of reasons for the too-high house prices in the SF Bay Area, including very low turnover.
(Low turnover is partly due to Proposition 13 property tax law).

The too high prices to buy made our region, as Wookie Man put it, eating sht for years. It's caused millennials and others to have to double-triple up with roommates, it's the main reason about half the shit boxes on my street have folks living (illegally) in garages and sheds, all working adults with cars, making parking impossible here. It's the reason the local government looks the other way on the illegal living arrangements. It's the main reason so many local government employees and other service workers reside Super Commute distance from their jobs, in outlying areas like Hollister, Watsonville, the Central Valley. Now it's become a reason for Flight Of Large Employers and young families from the region. In short, the Too-High Prices, which due to low turnover a very tiny minority of homeowners have cost sunken into, have made life miserable for here, - as Wookie Man said, our region eating sht. The huge majority of homeowners in the region only had imaginary "equity". If prices drop by half, they won't have lost a thing that they never really had anyway.

A collapse in the prices will be a welcome relief, will make life more livable here, less of eating sh*t kind of life. More affordability will be good for nearly everyone in the region, including ®ealors.

Strange, I already know a couple of people who bought houses for their kids in Texas. Couldn't afford in Coastal Insane LibbyFuck Privilege Land, so kids went to Texas for education or jobs or to raise families, and parents had enough spare change to buy them houses.

Realtor.com just released February 2023 Inventory figures for the US Housing Market. And on initial inspection they're...confusing. Because even though leading indicators of buyer demand collapsed in February, home sales actually went up. Which caused inventory to go down

Specifically: the number of Active Listings on the market declined to 578k homes. This inventory level is down 23% from Oct 2022. And it's down 38% from pre-pandemic levels. Meaning that inventory is still "low" at the national level..


This from the same article...

On the positive side - inventory is up year-over-year. And up significantly. Active Listings are 68% higher than they were in February 2022. Indicating that homebuyers are in a much better position heading into the spring selling season in 2023.


One of the most retarded articles I actually finished reading in a long time on real estate before I realized they have no clue what the fuck they're talking about.

I'll say it the 100th time. People are leaving cities after covid and millennials are having families. We're witnessing population movement to cheaper, less crowded areas. This is not a crash. 90% of people are in sub 5% mortgages and/or paid off. Solid financial standing. This is a fuck democrat movement and natural movement with the largest current generation starting families. It's not rocket science.

An article that says inventory is down and then up in the next paragraph should be immediately discarded. Cherry picking data to make a point is bull shit. I also wouldn't take advice from the meth head on breaking bad....

I'm not a bull, but this article is pure nonsense.
