They basically made the same arguments as people are making now while ignoring the red flags.
What a bunch of hogwash and gaslighting. Every tom dick and harry has been calling for a catastrophic crash for at least 2 years now. In fact, those who aren’t calling for a crash are in the minority. Where’s that “it’s always that one person arguing with no one” meme?

Not really. Maybe from your perspective.

I was buying houses off the MLS for $10,000.
That can be done now. And per your post history, you bought section 8……which again can be done now adjusted for inflation. I see $20k and $25k houses on mls. Furthermore, the ability to take advantage of a collapse is largely dependent on a) being able to predict the future and b) not being negatively impacted by a crash. Real estate doesn’t just crash on its own with no other fall out.

Please tell us the exact month the real estate market will collapse? These aren’t the same circumstances and it shows a lack of effort when anyone parrots “they said the same thing leading up to 2008”. Back then the real estate market was its own demise. Today there are many economical factors at play that if somehow the RE market does collapse, it won’t be because consumers are over leveraged in RE with ARM loans and creditors mis-rating securities. The data show that right now people can afford the houses they own.

The posters on here that have been predicting/begging/wishcasting for a housing crash sure are Big Mad for some reason and they are lashing out over their wrongness

The market is going to correct, nobody knows actually when.

Everyone affords the house that they own until they are unemployed or underemployed.
It is why housing is tied so much to joblessness.
Housing will remain "fine" until something changes the job market.

How much of this is a lag time issue? There are tons of developments going up in my area but these have been in the works for over a year. We wonder how many takers there will be for $400k cookie cutter box houses on 1/4 acre for 7% interest.

Someone at some point gets left holding the bag (new home inventory with no buyer).
But so long as employment is strong, I expect the homes to sell. Even at 7%.

Agree to disagree.
The housing expense is the first one in the budget.
The last one to go unpaid (loss of equity. 2 month deposit for the next spot with credit approval).
Once a family (husband, wife, or both) are underemployed/unemployed, it doesn't matter if they had an 850 credit score... they are sinking paycheck by paycheck.

Well you're right in that regard--2008 was limited to a real estate bubble.
This downturn is an "Everything" bubble. This inflation was caused by free money and paper millionaires. Lots of headlines recently "____worse since 2008".
This will be a great reset--for everything. There is no way around it.

There simply isn't enough housing supply in this Country
There is, bit it's unaffordable for many. A starter home now is a quarter million dollars.

Real Estate YouTube Channel This guy is doing an excellent job documenting the ongoing crash. Has plenty of data from various sources showing that. Prices are already down over 10% in many areas.
Anyone who thinks we're not in a crash in many parts of the country has their head in the sand!

There is plenty of inventory in this country. Just not enough inventory in attractive areas. As Urban areas decay more people are moving in the suburbs and other areas

How many housing crashes have there been outside of 2008? Or was this a global comment?

Prices in Travis county and surrounding areas are down 20%.
And this was the hottest market in the country for the past three years.

To his point, the median home price in Travis County is currently equal to what it was in March/April 2021.
