Something crazy has gone on for the last couple of months. A lot of people who have been waiting years to take the plunge into home ownership have finally done so. Here are some of the points that were made by the newly crowned home debtors....
- We have been hoping too for prices to fall, but leave alone offering asking price, we have been outbid on offers several times and were finally having offers accepted only if we offered more than 10% above asking price.
- Interest rates are the lowest they have been in years. We are not going to miss our opportunity to buy Bay area real estate. It hurt missing the boom last time and we cannot go through that again.
- Kids are growing and if we wait for homes being 3X ( or even 5x) times AGI, it will never happen.
- Peer pressure. All my friends who have waited have bought homes. Surely all cannot be wrong...
- I do nto care if real estate goes down. I want to live in my own place and I am not looking to flip.
- Restaurants are full these days. Looks like all the stimulus is working.
- Rents are going up. I just got a 10% increase for my 2 bed 2 bath. Heck, with all this money pumping, what is the guarantee that your rent stays steady, especially when you are in a good school district ?
- The $8K incentive
- Lots of Indians especially buying. These guys spend 60% on housing and for dual income husband wife software engineers, $500K mortgages are cheap considering their inclination to save and spend on property.
Looking at how the Fed and the govt. have manipulated the market and offered all sorts of outlandish programs to aid home debtors, it does feel like I am being short-changed here. Are there options available to sue the government for discrimination based on choice of housing ?
