Someone had some cash laying around. Congrats @RiverDave , I’m sure that didn’t hurt the boat fund.

Amazing home. Congratulations to the buyer and team RDP for negotiating a price almost 400k lower than original listing. Also happens to be a lower price than it sold for two years ago.

Florida is getting hit hard with price decreases right now and inventory is increasing significantly. Cost of living is up and Florida doesn't offer the wages like CA does in order to live comfortably.

Do you have a link to the data about price decreases? I have been looking in Sarasota, Venice and North Port, which is where we will buy when our TN place sells.

I think FL is still affordable without the 11-13% income tax, higher gas, electricity, registration fees and personal property assessments. Food is probably comparable, but I think you beat us on liquor prices. LOL

We have a house we are trying to sell in Naples Fl on a canal and it's a nightmare. There are 8 houses on the street 3 are for sale. There are over 100 listings in a half mile. No one can get insurance. Nothing is selling.
Insurance has gone crazy, my cousin has a vacation house in Naples Bay area on the water and each house to his left and right got major damage from the last hurricane but his did not get touched, he said it was like a movie scene. He said a few neighbors have dropped asking prices up to 1 million from prior sales or former asking in attempts to sell because they have had enough and the time & costs of rebuilding are making their decisions for them. I personally would never buy in a heavy hurricane zone due to all the issues but I see the draw of having a house in that area it is beautiful. Hope you sell and get what you want for it.

Remember NaySayers this is a National related Post NOT a Havi or Just parts of Cali THREAD....
1 in 37 houses in the nation are in trouble and under water, as long as homeowners keep their jobs and make their payments they should be ok but once their job gets threatened or miss a payment due to any issue watch out.... And wait til these 5+% buyers have a glitch in their income that were 50-60-70% debt to income ratio in order to buy a place.....I know I know I am ready to here that "Havasu is booming and houses in some areas are selling like hot cakes and for tons of $$$" and the stories of "My friend or I have a neighbor that sold in 10 minutes for 100k over asking" lol... but those are far and few between when considering the national averages and direction we are heading, one thing for sure, Facts are Facts and Facts do not lie in the direction we are heading....just a small picture.

anyone have intel on the boat market? It seems that the offroad toy market is at a stand still.... zero action. I know its also seasonal, but I'd say it came to a halt in Jan/ Feb which was still in season. Seeing a lot of people / Facebook friends trying to sell their 2021 & 2022 model RV's. Local RV lots are stacked with inventory and so are the local car lots.

Interesting, 7 of the top 9 ish are in areas with very low home values. Seriously underwater must be a small dollar amount there.

My neighbor is trying to sell his RV for less than he owes, still no takers yet. He’s tired of the $800 a month payment and only using it a couple of times a year.

You have to scale the sensationalism the media can portray when a hit piece is designed to capture views and likes.

Something around 45% of all mortgages are paid off and free and clear. That leaves the scale to a much smaller number.

Nobody is losing money or under water on their mortgage unless they’re in need of selling. If they’re staying put it doesn’t matter. I bought my home in 2004 and never felt underwater during the crisis of 2008 because I wasn’t forced to sell.

I’m not minimizing your overall point just looking at it subjectively. If your lifestyle is maximized it’s always going to be a grind whether the market is strong or not. That challenge will only compound when the market is stressed.

What ratio (you said 1 in 37 are underwater) would be a “no worry” situation?

Is that typically 1:50…1:100 etc.

They typical down payment for a first time homebuyer in America is about 6%.

Given transaction costs, pretty much every single first time homebuyer is under water the day they close.

One thing you can't get back or put a price on is time.... I'm on our 3rd RV.... and have actually always made money on the sale or broke even. The one I'm currently in right now I got a decent deal on... so would probe break even or maybe take a loss on if I had to sell. But one thing I will never regret is the amount of fun as a family over the last 10+ years of having an RV. Unfortunately these things always seem like they'll never make sense for a rational / fiscally responsible thinker lol, so you either jump in at some point or you don't. As long as you're not over extending yourself to do it, and you find yourself a good deal when buying... it should be worth it.

Be careful with your kids sports schedule. Loved ours for years until baseball became year round and the kids added football/cheer. Damn thing sat around so much it cost me a shitload in tires from sitting.

That's a hell of a discount.

The bank chatter is heating up again.


Billionaire Barry Sternlicht, Founder, Chairman and CEO of Starwood Capital Group has issued an ominous warning about America's regional banks, which he says will fail at a rate of 'one or two' per week.

Speaking with CNBC on Tuesday, Sternlicht says he thinks that primary real estate lenders - community and regional banks - are about to get whacked.

"You're going to see a regional bank fail every day, or not — every week, maybe two a week," he said, adding that Fed Chair Jerome Powell's ongoing rate hikes will continue to have consequences for the real estate sector.

"He's got a hard task with a blunt tool, and the consequence is the real estate markets are taking it on the chin because rates rose so fast. We could have handled this, but we couldn't handle it this fast," he said. "The 1.9 trillion of real estate loans, that's a fragile animal right now."

Reeg this is their master plan. They could give two shits about the regional banks and are hoping they shit to bed so they can just print more money and gobble them up at discount . And then let their banker buddies take them over... Chase, Wells etc.. Just gonna be 4 or 5 major banks and thats it...

and then switch everything to digital currency and maybe one giant Government bank

I like that guy and he has a lot of good data points, but he has been yelling LIVE GERNADE for well over a year. My investment with him is also off by 20%.

I usually have 4-6 loans out and right now I have one with a repeat borrower and am pretty happy about it. I think the Fed needs to ease up on the 2% inflation mandate. IMO The Fed is going to break something in the economy waiting to get below 2.5% inflation. Stan Druckenmiller's interview yesterday on CNBC was great.

As far as that 2.6 house, that's salesman of the year stuff right there.

We got an offer on our TN place yesterday. All cash. A little low ball offer, with nothing but the house. We were hoping we would sell boat, tractor, sxs and furniture with the house. We countered and then he came back with how much do you want for the boat and furniture. We told him last night. We will see where this ends up.

If he buys boat and furniture and comes up 60k on the offer, we should be good. Have a buyer for sxs, but the tractor may be tough. It is probably worth 12-13k but who knows. Guy wants a quick escrow so I am looking for a consignment place to sell the tractor.

We went the ToyHauler route since we had a truck already.
Been looking to move into an RV, but my daughter’s travel volleyball schedule is impacting trips.

Each has their pros / cons, but you have to find the time.
RV‘s make arriving late at camp easier vs a tow behind, but cost of entry is higher.

That house sold for 489,700 in November of 21. Now it is listed at 1,199,900 two and a half years later.

That is a hell of a sweet gain.

2020 Kabota BX2680 with belly mower, brush hog and box blade. I think 160 hrs. Looking it up some are going for 14 ish. Worst case I will probably auction it off.
