Real Estate Crash thread
Probably at the Yellowstone club. My company execs had dual offices in Jackson Hole. Twin jets:

Good info on why this market is not like 2007 and why the "wait and see" buyers probably aren't gonna catch deals anytime soon. They will just end up paying more than if they purchase now. The rate of price increase will probably slow, but but that doesn't mean prices are going backwards. Especially for the kinds of houses people on a ski message board want to buy. The few deals that pop up will most likely be in crappy towns for crappy houses and won't help the highly qualified buyers of today looking for nicer houses in or near the growing hip towns.

The energy spent pitching prospective buyers on higher prices might be better spent convincing current owners to sell.

True, but you have to not only convince these people to sell (and make a boatload of money in the process) but you pretty much have to convince them to move somewhere that is not as great as where they live now. That being said it's happening.
I have a friend who is selling her house and moving from here to NC. She doesn't seem particularly excited about the move, but to be able to turn down several hundred thousand cash equity gained in just a few years well....can't blame them.

When commodity prices normalize new home builders will expand lot development where they have it. Supply will come when prices stabilize and time on market increases as pent up sellers fomo. Median price might continue to rise but bidding war froth will wane.
New home builders have to sell homes to satisfy Wall Street. The XHB was recently down 10% from its high.

Lumber futures tried to fill the gap and failed. It’s been up and down limit in the same day. That’s not extraordinary in thin futures. Lumber has backwardation of 30% less than a year out.

I recently joined an MTB/social facebook group here in Montrose to try and meet some new people. Almost everyone has the same story- moved within the last few years from (whatever ski town) because it's more affordable (sort of) and good enough. Guess I'm not the only one thinking that way.

Remember the guy who bought the 1380 sq ft rancher that was listed at 710k for 822k and immediately put it back on the market for 895?
Well, I guess the market called his bluff. 100k price reduction.

It is the constant discussion around ski towns between locals right now. Where is the next great place to live? It has gotten kind of annoying. Really messes with your head.
House down the street sold for $125K over asking. Almost double what they paid just two years ago. WTF?

It's a good one every time. I do wonder why they think Summit County is better than Asheville but that's just for my own knowledge.
I was ahead of my time starting the thread to condense as much knowledge as possible about the next great mountain towns of Upstate NY. Given that there are 2000 non members (jfhc, bunch or pervs) lurking in the forums I do apologize to the current Upstate crew for ruining your home towns in ten or so years.

Couldn’t see that coming. There are very few instances where, with all the data available, that a dolt would pull trigger on a brash flip such as that. Now that speculator is down 7-8% from his purchase price after factoring sale cost and excise tax. You go bro.
