Keep yapping nonsense
Someone should tell Wells Fargo to get back in to mortgages😂
People act like 5% rates are 20%. 5% should be the norm, not 0,0001% fed rates. If our economy can’t be strong with 5% rates, then something is fundamentally wrong.
People think interest rates are the only indicator when taking out a loan. If interest rates are low, then buy a house at any price. We got here because people are dumb and low interest rates gave them the confidence to buy uncontrollably.
@SomeUserNameBlahBlah Also low rates moved all disposable cash into the market because that’s the only place they could get a return. That’s how Tesla gets an insane $1T market cap.
The days of free money may be over but I’d still hope to see interest rates occasionally dip down to 4 or 3.5 percent so that savvy homeowners and buyers can take advantage and make their incomes stretch a little farther. As for labor shortages and corresponding higher wages fueling inflation AI is going to make matters “better” in one sense eliminating or easing demand to some extent.
