Because so many people overpaid for homes even while loan rates were low, I believe there will be a housing catastrophe because these people are in debt. If housing costs continue to drop and, for whatever reason, they can no longer afford the property and it goes into foreclosure, they have no equity since, even if they try to sell, they will not make any money. I believe that many individuals will experience this, especially given the impending mass layoffs and rapidly rising living expenses.

@Pamela.jess.245 17 дней назад

Considering the present situation, diversifying by shifting investments from real estate to financial markets or gold is recommended, despite potential future home price drops. Given prevailing mortgage rates and economic uncertainty, this move is prudent, particularly due to stricter mortgage regulations. Seeking advice from a knowledgeable independent financial advisor is advisable for those seeking guidance.

@NicholasHarmon-ow3jl 17 дней назад

You're correct! With the help of an investment coach, I was able to diversify my 450K portfolio across markets and produce slightly more than $830K in net profit from high dividend yield equities, ETFs, and bonds.

Inflation is not "increased in value." Its a way for these snakes to jack up the property tax until you can no longer afford to live there. That's what they have planned so gloat while you can.

@username-cy8pj 3 месяца назад

I think in this uncertain time, the paid off roof over your head. the peace of mind and ability to in a small sense.. watch the flood from higher ground is the equivalent to being rich. As far as generational wealth goes.. u can set up the next generation but giving someone your wealth works as well as giving them your kitchen utensils and expecting them to become a chef because u were a chef. ... that wealth gets liquidated and split up, spent and forgotten. Security is the goal of home ownership.. and that means securing your home from the grasp of the bank asap.

We sold our home in Florida made a profit and bought a smaller home in TN that we paid off. No mortgage plus we bought a second 22acres property in TN paid for as well. So we owe nothing on either one. Plus the property taxes are way lower than Florida. Thank you God. We feel blessed. However, I miss my Florida home and I’m not happy with the house I’m in.

She lost her independence, had to move several times to rentals she wasn't comfortable with, lived with relatives some, never felt at home. To top it off, her neighborhood TRIPLED in value after she sold. She was sick about all this, and wished she had just stayed put in her home and lived comfortably there.

Do not rent out your house! My son rented out his home when he got married and moved into her house. The renter was in the military. My son felt safe to rent to them. Well, they got kicked out of the military for doing drugs. They stopped paying the rent and because of the pandemic, they couldn’t kick them out! They totally trashed the house before they could be evicted. That home took months to get repaired. He finally sold it.

As more mom and pop landlords throw in the towel and corporations take them over, tenants WILL have to tow the line because corporations aren't gonna put up with it and don't have to, tenants will wish they treated their mom and pop landlords better......

I LOVE LOVE your advice. So many other content creators our advising people to start liquidating and pay things off in cash which yes, makes sense. It’s more sense of security, but it wasn’t easy to save up the initial down payment for the rental that we have now, and just to think of having to go through that all over again I’m in my 40s now my husband and I are both in our 40s now and to do this all over again I just don’t see that happening especially because circumstances have just changed for us. I’m no longer working due to health issues so it’s not so easy now that we’re a one income family. Ty for this advice. I was literally on the fence of talking to my husband about putting our rental up on the market. Thank you. I think we’re going to hold.

I’m a bit uncertain what to do, so I do nothing except work on my house when I can. I’m 71, been retired about 9 years, no savings, living on SS. My mortgage is $840. I live in a city. The house needs some repair. Last year I started painting the exterior, and hope to finish it this or next year. I have some money from insurance company to replace the roof and have a roofer and waiting on getting that done when it warms up. Will be replacing one window (purchased) and front door (from money back from property tax this year). AC went out years ago so I use a window AC upstairs and a portable one downstairs. The furnace is about 22 years old, but still works. The back patio door needs fixing or replacing. The sliding screen door is broken. One bedroom has sheet rock removed because I added insulation. A downstairs room needs walls too because of water damage and added insulation, including finishing a bathroom there. Only has toilet with no walls. Shower there but again, no walls. Kitchen electric stovetop very old and should be replaced. Lots of fun. Would like to sell house and move to a more rural area, where more room to garden and away from any future unrest in cities. So as I said, not sure what to do except plug along on repairs.

Hello there...thanks so much for sharing your situation. Sounds like you are very handy. Everyone's situation is different. Holding your property for the long term may not be the best solution for your situation. As we get older and are focusing on downsizing or living in a different area, sometimes selling is a good option. Depending on your area, inventories are still low and some buyers are willing to purchase a property AS IS. May be something for you to consider. I really like the idea of gardening. Appreciate your comment. Best of luck to you. ❤

Audra, thank you for this video ❤ 🙏 I am on the cross roads with my house in LA and your experience helped me put things into perspective. I don’t have any pressures to sell my house, but with everything going on in SoCal I am not 100% sure if our properties will appreciate or depreciate over time. And this is where FOMIO kicks in.

@AudraLambert 7 месяцев назад

The hardest thing for me to do in real estate is HOLD when things got tough. I did invest in areas that were growing and thriving back in the day. I regret selling because I did go to a lot of work buying and spending the time investigating the proper areas to invest. If I would have just cooled my jets, had a plan, and stuck with it, I would have been in a much better position. Southern California is a very desirable area and most of our land is gone limiting new areas to be developed. Not sure where you live in LA. I know some areas are better than others. Thanks for your comment and best of luck with your decision.

Our why for selling is to move 2000 miles to be closer to our kids that moved away and now having our grandchildren. We love our Indiana home built in 1872 . It needs so much work but it's on a few acres with beautiful setting and good location. We have already purchased land and put in a well at the new property but it's gonna take a miracle to sell this old home. I wish we could keep it, but renting doesn't seem feasible. We are tired and "poor", and don't want to do all the renovations it would take to make it up to snuff. We could do a heloc to develop the new property, but does that even make sense with the 2000 mile distance. It's a dilemma! 😢 My husband has the same philosophy as your's about cars! Really enjoying and value your no nonsense info and advice!

(Thankful we have new Roof/Boilers/asphalt driveway/windows) So, I am paralyzed as to a decision.

In late 2007 a luxury residential high rise in downtown Seattle was completed. All the units were sold, and all of the happy buyers moved in, myself included. There were parties in the lounge and on the terrace. We were a happy community of professionals. Cut to a few months later, and the collapse. The building became doom and gloom, as owners became short sellers and there were even foreclosures. These were owner residents. There were very few rentals. I knew I was going to ride it out. I bought with the intention of living there many years. Why would I sell? I knew there is no price on my property until I sold it. Ten years later, I did sell, at top of market as it turned out.

My wife and I took over my father's home when he passed away a couple of years ago. We knew it needed a few big repairs and were ok with making those, so we decided to move in. Long story short we dropped about 100k into it but even to this day, there's always something going wrong the house was built in 1937 and I feel like no matter what we do were going to be dumping money into it left and right. Anyone think we should hang in there or hang it up? Any input would truly be appreciated. Thanks

@AudraLambert 2 месяца назад

Hello there! Yes, buying an older home does have its downsides...consistent maintenance is one of those downsides. Everyone's financial situation is different...and their reasons for investing in a property is different for different folks. There is always a good reason to sell and a good reason to hold. I have sold properties in the past just because I was sick of dealing with all the tenant calls about the repairs that came up on a property. I eventually sold this property and bought a newer one with less maintenance issues....my time is valuable too. it may make sense for you to sell. I would do the research...know what your house is worth if you sold it. What would you do with that money? Where would you invest it? I would also see the advice of a trusted financial advisor. Its important to know the implications of selling or buying. Best of luck to you.

I AGREE!!!! We decided to downsize from a 5 acre property with a 5 bedroom home and relocate closer to grandkids- we only owed $135K on it- payments were $1200/mo. So we sold - in 2016- the property now(2024) is worth $$1.1 million more because of all the covid fleeing ppl moving into our state ( NW Montana). Huge mistake. Plus we still haven't bought a place - for vairous reasons. Renting a tiny place now for $1200/mo and no hope to buy with increased prices to buy - plus very low inventory where we are. I certainly do wish we hadn't sold.

I have a property that I wanted to rent out but I have to do too much maintenance to it. Too much cost is going into the fixing it up so it is too expensive to keep it vs renting it out.

@AudraLambert 7 месяцев назад

If its too expensive to maintain the property for you, then perhaps it makes sense to sell. You don't want to rent out a property with tenants in the property where you cannot guarantee everything is going to be working properly or safely. Its never a good idea to be over leveraged. If you do have a lot of equity in your home, and the rents are very lucrative for you (you'd have to do the research) you could always take an equity line of credit out to do some of the repairs. With the extra cash flow you'd be receiving from your property, you could pay down your loan. This only works is the property would cash flow well for you. Just trying to give you options. Best of luck...and thanks for watching.

Unfortunately also for some reason my house is a condo and there is one down the street same make and model with the owner trying to rent out his unit and his for rent sign has been up for months.

@1mw4tch1ng 3 месяца назад

of course, talking with a realtor will coach you to sell your house for self-preservation (commission). Even your friend realtor will talk you into selling the house, what a friend!!! Yes, renting your home will create positive income but what happens when renters do not pay and tenants have rights like in California and San Francisco. The Gov will allow homeowners to sink as long the freeloaders have a board and room to stay in. So it is easier said than done about keeping your home. That will work if you have a lot of reserve in case the market, jobs, etc are down otherwise will end up in foreclosure. We hope the Gov will do the same to lenders and not allow homeowners to foreclose but unfortunate politicians are bought by the corporations.

@AudraLambert 3 месяца назад

I hear ya. I live in California too. Its always good to have an eviction specialist. I have a good one, if you ever need one. Reasonable too. Obviously its always a good idea to screen any tenant. There are risks to renting for sure. I am renting my investment property out at a slightly reduced rent because the tenants were solid, with great FICO scores and have a steady job. It really important to find a good tenant. Some landlords will just rent to whoever fogs up a mirror...be careful!!

@AudraLambert 7 месяцев назад

I hear ya...but you have to be careful with competing with new developments. You are probably not offering what the new builders are offering. In my area, builders are offering mortgage rate buy downs for their buyers, throwing in a ton of upgrades. In fact, some builders are actually including landscaping in their transactions. Its easier for buyers to go the new builder route also, because most new development will accept a contingent sale. Buying a new home has its pros and cons. Its much easier for a buyer to get into a new development because the builder is assisting with financing, upgrades, and are willing to work with contingent offers (because they have plenty of units to sell).

I'm a 67-year old woman living in Los Angeles. I'm renting out the small 2-bdrm, 1-bath house that I grew up in and inherited from my mother in 2011 and I'm getting $3,400/month for it. It's an 'as is' house with knob & tube wiring and it's worth approx. $900K-$1M. I own it free & clear, no mortgage and am currently living in a 1-bedroom apartment where the rent is very low because I've been there for 30 years. I have around $700K savings. Your suggestion about taking out a line of credit to buy another house to live in appeals to me because I'm tired of my shabby little apartment. I would probably have to go out of state to find a cheaper house so I could still have savings left after purchasing it. The problem with holding on to this house is that being a landlord in a house that needs a lot of work done is very stressful and I'm not getting any younger.

I’m sad abut the house we sold to move into this one. It was a needed life and location change but also a surprise that my husband chose a huge three story busy corner small lot an hour each direction for either of our jobs. I questioned it but he was determined. We sold a cottage one level on a lake with acreage. We own too much home now and it cost us way more than I was comfortable agreeing to. However. Within months our sold home was leveled by a tornado that took out nearly the entire city. So Im grateful but I really really miss that home, area, and lifestyle and feel like I’m just always looking for a similar property. This place is so wrong for us, was awful for the kids, not good for ur dogs, and now and retiring in a home that needs constant upgrading and maintenance is rage inducing. But I love my husband even if he makes the worst possible choices for both of us. I want a forever home, but I want one I can see myself staying in forever.
