Real estate

Is it a good time to invest in a townhouse in Bay area? TC 200 with good savings Update: this question is more about understanding the chances of market crash and if it's a good time to invest in real estate or not. Also I'm a first time home buyer so whatever I'll buy will be my primary residence

Do u want to sell it in one month ? If not it’s always a good investment for long term

What is your budget?

Salesforce kp12345 OP Oct 12, 2018

I have good savings so I'm looking for something under 1M

Gotta pump those numbers. Those are rookie numbers. TC:550k own a bunch of income properties outside Bay Area but do not own anything here including my home

Townhouses are not as good investments as SFH. When the crash hits this is the order of decline: condos > townhouses > SFH (single family home)

This makes townhouse a safe bet.. sfh are expensive if they are close to Bart/caltrain

Why does it matter if you arent gonna sell during recession?

Not with Bay Area TH in top school districts

Elaborate please

I will buy a TC as primary residence if that how much you can afford. Won’t invest in TC in the Bay

I would wait a few months as interest rates are going up and home prices are being reduced because of it
