Discussion: Will real estate prices come down in the next 2-3 years, or will major companies and the top 1% continue buying all property, slowly raising prices, and in turn creating a permanent renters class?

I think growth will start to plateau, inventory will rise, crazy competition will decrease.

Prices will come down but rates will go up. Cost of monthly mortgage will be higher net-net if I had to guess and predict the future. If you have cash not currently in stocks right now I’d look to buy as soon as possible. Real estate is one of the most stable markets compared to stocks. Bought my home 1.5 years ago for $1M with a 2.8% APR and it’s now up to $1.4M and rates are hovering around 5-5.5%

Correction should happen in specific markets. Mostly the gains should stick but it feels like we’ve peaked. I try to real a lot on the subject

Unlikely prices go down, except in very specific markets, but not even sure if that’s the case. Large structural trends are what’s driving the price increases (millennials aging, boomers retiring in place, little new supply over last decade).

Agree with rates going up. Quickly than stabilize. You have to be old like me to even comprehend a time when a mortgage rate was in the High Teens! Our first mortgage in 1985 was about 10.5% fixed, I believe.

Hi folks,

Infosys consulting HR told me over the call that we are happy to provide you the offer and she will start the process and I should get an offer within a week.

After 10 days, I followed up with her and she is saying that they are working on it.

Now after 8 days again still there is no offer from their side.

Any idea how long I need to wait for the offer ?
