More About This Show
“Housing bubble” is a term that gets thrown around often in the real estate sector. It’s often misused and largely misunderstood. While many homeowners and investors lost their homes back in 2008, current market conditions are a completely different ball game.

It’s important to understand that a housing bubble is created by rising prices, which are affected by a few different factors. First, there must be a high demand for properties. The lack of supply creates a higher demand, but these market conditions differ from 2008. This This time around, conditions are much less threatening because prices aren’t being driven up by a faulty mortgage system.

Secondly, rising prices are affected by speculation. Oftentimes builders will try to predict the future of the market. Take a look at what has happened in Brooklyn. This can lead to unsafe purchases because the asset worth can suddenly change. It can be extremely difficult to predict what might happen over a span of years.

Lastly, you know there’s a bubble when you notice society’s exuberance. Do you hear other people in Starbucks talking about a bubble? Or on social media? Pay attention to what’s in the news.

While it’s true that housing prices are on the rise, conditions are much different than what we experienced in 2008. Don’t be afraid of the bubble! People still need to rent. Why shouldn’t they rent from you? As long as you’re purchasing in the right markets, your investments will be safe. On today’s show, I’ll share more details about the 2018 housing bubble.
