Where were you 10 years ago?
Could you predict where we are today?
The moment I landed in Arizona, I knew I wanted to stay here. I felt like there was definitely a great opportunity. 10 years later, I’m incredibly thankful to be a father, a husband, a real estate professional, and a real estate investor here in the great state of Arizona.
If the stats I share in this video should tell you anything, it’s that there is a ton more inventory than we usually have. That certainly makes for a great opportunity in a supply and demand context.
But we are not where we were 10 years ago.
Regardless of what any leader in government says, affordability is an issue in almost every phase of life right now for many Americans across our great country. It does seem to me that at least in real estate holdings, there is a large socioeconomic stratification taking place.
While I’m not 100% sure what the solution is to this issue, what I can say for sure is that if you can afford to buy a home, it may be a good time to consider doing so. A majority of real estate being traded right now is selling below asking and providing closing cost concessions to the buyers.
I understand the appeal of renting right now, but that rental will not accrue equitable gain in your best financial interest. That rental is doing so for its property owner. Paying the landlord rent is not a hedge against inflation.
It’s often said to not time the market, but spend time in the market. Now might be the time to do both. Everyone’s needs are different, and your values may not be the same as mine. But just know that I’m rooting for you, and here to support you if you need any real estate assistance whatsoever.
Wishing you well.
