Jesus Ashley,
Yore right.
Until yore not.
Carry on...
Dan'l
Redfin laid off 8% of its workforce, Compass 10%, THOSANDS MORE TO COME.
As inflation hit 68.6% in May and mortgage rates skyrocketed past 6%, as of mid-June, real estate brokerages and services are tightening their belts.
I bet most of the lay offs are about trying to make 3rd and 4th quarter numbers because of the revenue shortfalls due to post covid, supply chain and labor costs.
The old revenue miss but earning beat.
Can we start betting on it now? Last time I offered this all I heard were crickets. And had you taken the bet I’d be cashing checks lol
I'm so ready for these lakes to be empty!!! Oh yeah and now maybe I'll be lucky enough to have a calm glamis on holiday weekends
Lol I’ll take action on anything at this point.Let’s bet on who will actually buy something in the next 90 days when prices will be 50% lower
Wishful thinkingDude if $6 gas isn’t gonna do it, you are gonna need to see at least half a bakers dozen as the unemployment number for that to start happen.
Lol I’ll take action on anything at this point.
The constant “end is near” is exhausting. These broken clocks eventually will be right.
Everyone who got burned in 2008 is salivating that they are on the right side of history this time.
Problem is that our 2008 may have happened in 2020. Billions were made in real estate and the stock market. What if cashing out and waiting/renting is the worst thing you could have done?
I don’t know the answer but when the Uber driver is saying to buy a stock, there’s a recession, or any other hot tip I tend to go the other way lol.
Someone say Speed Thread……Geezus.........I open this shit up to post a thread about a boat movie I just watched and this is at the top.
Why can't you people just start one thread like the Speed one and just keep adding to it??
It is almost like the doom and gloomers are salivating to say I told you so after they have been wrong for almost 10 years.
What’s the boat flic Joe I’m interested.Geezus.........I open this shit up to post a thread about a boat movie I just watched and this is at the top.

It is on Netflix right now. Cheesy title, poorly acted but has boats in it. Don Aronow story.What’s the boat flic Joe I’m interested.
I agree with you. Different scenario here and your probably right about companies tightening their belts for 3rd and 4th quarter. In 2008 it was major layoffs across the board combined with Arm Loans to people with stated income that couldn't afford their payment after the loan matured.Lol I’ll take action on anything at this point.

I'm not gonna mention any names but some folks are about to have a comeundun about another doom and gloom RE post.
We don’t get laid off. We take better opportunities.Hope some of those laid off are the top producers who know how to improvise, adapt and deliver results. If so we have tons of openings for them as well as the other ten million openings across the nation.
Oh thank God we'll get a day in between to recover.You mean we have to endure bi-daily “The sky is falling” RE threads for 3 more years?
Do they do a full body search before the pic? Shit they must. Some crazy mofos out there
Perfect publicity stunt for TrumpThe picture fee reduction for Kamala should have been the indicator that shit is about to get real…
when the crash in 08 happened I believe it wasnt until 2012 when the home prices bottomed out.
But that wouldn’t be as much fun!Geezus.........I open this shit up to post a thread about a boat movie I just watched and this is at the top.

You beat me to it, my .02 is this is not like 08, this is not a banker thing, it is a demand thing, I honestly think prices will level off but not come down like last time, we will see drops in asking, but it will only be back to value.When the market crashed 08 i was shopping for a home in Chino thinking id have my pick of the litter. Not the case, I was competing against several cash buyers. It got to the point where I wouldn’t even look at homes anymore I submitted offers on everything in the market. It took until 2010 to finally have an offer accepted. Im talking full price offers. Back then the market crashed because over 36% of mortgages were stated income adjustable rate mortgages, people with shitty credit. Today that is not the case, only 4% are ARMs, everyone I know purchased and refinanced below a 3% 30yr fixed. No one took out equity. Everyone has been living within their means. I think 2008 taught us all the risk of over leveraging. Today we have a huge supply shortage, tons of qualified buyers. Unemployment rate is under 4% vs 10% in 08. Home builders building too slow and rents are way up. With the market softening people will not look to upgrade leaving their 3% fixed rate and get in to a 6% loan. This will further the home supply constraints. A correction will happen a blood bath not so much. Real estate job market has been over saturated, there are literally more agents than there are homes. There are plenty of vacant jobs to fill. What happens when the supply chains ease up. The war in Ukraine ends, gas prices come back down, and inflation drops. Will we see a boom reversal, all possibilities, The average bear market lasts less than a year no one can time the bottom perfectly.
And by the way, R.E. In history has never gone down, except after 08.You beat me to it, my .02 is this is not like 08, this is not a banker thing, it is a demand thing, I honestly think prices will level off but not come down like last time, we will see drops in asking, but it will only be back to value.
That is pretty damn elitist of you to say, Sir. I'm not sure you realize that outside of the weather is nice bubble that you live in there are a majority of States that have an average salary far below below what you see on the West and NorthEast coasts, but that's been ok because our cost of living has reflected that in the past. However, the cost of living does not reflect that anymore and the pain is coming and it's coming hard and will impact the Socialist bubble you have been living in out there with your head in the tulips.We are fucked View attachment 1128834

Except this time ~18% of the single-family homes are owned by institutional investors.And by the way, R.E. In history has never gone down, except after 08.
Interesting,I did not realize that, however I’m still thinking that that could be one of the many reasons this “correction “ will not be like before,…. Now I am speculating, I could be wrong,. But I will still bet my $ that all will “level” off, and prices will still be at current market value……. Which is still overinflated.Except this time ~18% of the single-family homes are owned by institutional investors.

They’ve already started to come down, not much I would call a “deal” but they are on their way.With so many experts on here, can someone just tell me when all the boats and SXS will be going up for sale? I am ready for the deals!
