I don’t know what is crazier, the prices or demand. I had one neighbor get full asking for their house one hour after listing and sight unseen. Another neighbor had a contract and full cash offer one day after listing. These aren’t cheap houses. We bought in October and our realtor said we could easily get 25% more if we sell today.

Probably not long after the eviction moratorium expires.

It's crazy good, if you're looking to get one sold, but hell to find one to buy.

We would like to move, but nothing good last more than a day and people are paying way over list price to get them.

It might could stabilize if employers start allowing work from home hybrids where employees will have to live within the vicinity of an office. A big reason a lot of folks relocated was to move to cheaper cost of living areas while working remotely. Not everyone will stay fully remote post-COVID lockdowns.

With inflation on top of it, I give it about a year before you start to see major foreclosures on these houses folks have paid out of pocket for pre-inspection but have trouble affording the materials to upgrade.

In November you’re going to see a shite load of foreclosures and then the market will flood. Once the foreclosure ban is up it’s game over.

Supply will surpass demand and home prices will fall.

There's a bill floating around Capitol Hill right now suggesting $15k tax credit at closing for anyone that hasn't purchased a home in the last 3 yrs. Given at closing and not just a washed credit on tax returns.

That could potentially spike up demand even that much more if it's passed as law.

This is what someone wrote to me about the housing market.

"If 2s/10 invert, there's actually something to worry about. Its one of the most consistent recession predictors & can take up to 34 months to actually come to fruition. Last time that happened was August 2019, 23 months ago"

That it for what its worth.

I paid 10 over, sight unseen. Couldn’t be happier with the new place.
Best part was house appraised for 5 over our purchase price. After the seller put a new roof on it for one minor inspection flaw.

Renovating previous house now to sell. Going big on the asking. Might as well, someone will pay it. The market is nuts right now.

Depends… is the economy going full on Weimar Republic considered ending the bubble?

Housing costs go up but that is because money is no longer worth the paper it is printed on.

Are you sure it’s a bubble?

Not anytime soon per my rental property manager who is also a real estate agent. We have been looking to sell and move to a new primary residence but we’re too fearful of a buying process in this market.

Not sure there is a bubble.

Millenials have put off homebuying for a long time and have started to make their moves finally.

With housing, everyone seems to have the obvious and simple explanation of how things are and what the future will be. Look at 2008...of course, everything was so obvious after the fact but people didn’t realized it before the crash. Nothing goes up forever because people make bad decisions and never learn from them.
