It will get to the point that multiple people will have to purchase a house or land.
Renting is a scam because you will never own it.

While the appeal is there to many, the depreciation over time is based on a perpetual deterioration that is inherent in all trailers, RVs, campers.
They all go to shite rapidly - and most buyers have mortgage like debt on a rapidly depreciating asset. The step into a house, even a ratty little house is a much better proposition..

They are junk and if you want to get parts for them then you won't find them at the local walmart. Only certain RV places have them and because of the lack of competition, they jack up the prices. The same with mobile homes.

I can tell you in the KC metro it’s 90% large multi unit apartment complexes. Most of these developments are at minimum 500-1000 units with some retail and leisure components as part of the project. The cheap money has pushed single family home prices through the roof and the big Real estate investment corporations have stepped in to fill the gap with these huge multi unit apartment complexes. What’s also messed up is upwards of 20% of single family home sales are being bought by real estate investment companies which also helps to inflate single family home prices and that conveniently drives people to their large multi unit apartment complexes…..lol!
These places are a few section 8's away from being projects filled with gunshot victims.

Black Rock is buying up entire subdivisions above asking price with the intention of renting to the middle class.

I tend to agree with this but how will they stave off inflation without raising rates?

I can attest to that for KC market. Sold 4 rentals this year. Sold a 3 bed 1 bath slab home in Ruskin for 145k!!! Ridiculous...The hedge hund rented it for 1,280 / mo.
Thats freaking nuts!!

1. Larger homes so more family members can live under one roof? 2 or more paying the mortgage
We know several families who are doing this now, including ours.

2. or Tiny homes?
I hope that trend is over and done. One family I saw on the tiny home series sold their 3500 sf homes and all their belongings, and they moved into something like 350 sf with several kids!

3. More renting? Black Rock has already acquired 9 Trillion in assets

Black Rock will make a killing once rates go up and no one can afford to buy. There's a group (might be Black Rock) that built an entire subdivision nearby, single-family houses, around 1400-1600 sf, rent starting at over $2000/mo, and they're having no problem getting renters.

35 years ago we had interest rates north of 10%...
We bought a house back then and paid $38,000. We made the mistake of renting it out starting in 2004, finally sold it in March of this year. The buyers could barely afford the purchase even at the low interest rates. We ran into them a couple months ago...they have 2 roommates and are looking for another.
It's getting pretty bad.

I’ve decided that when I sell I will not use a realtor and have direct interaction with the buyer.
You can FSBO if you do your homework and you’re smart. Be prepared to pay an agent fee on your buyer, but never forget you can negotiate a rate.
I’d recommend using a realtor if you’re in a crunch time wise to sell. Again negotiate the rate. I’ve done them for 1%. Which again makes other realtors hate me, as if I cared they do.

I think the Fed will be extremely reluctant to raise rates, and there’s essentially zero chance it happens before the mid-terms.
I’m seeing two things in housing right now as far as new construction.
The shotgun house. Small bedrooms, .2 acre or so lot size. Lots of those ongoing, probably 5-1 as many or more of option 2.
Higher middle class housing. 350-500k . Half acre or so size lots, 2000-3000 square feet. Good school zones. I’m selling 3 of the latter this week, and 2 of the first in 3 weeks.
Outside of those two, at least from my perspective the market is softening.

These people that are overpaying will be stuck with these homes once rates go up. No one is going to give you the 30% you overpaid.
