Federal Reserve Economist: Housing market is indicating a recession start in 6 months

Buckle up everyone, it is about to get turbulent. Good news: it is not going to be as bad as the last recession. Bad news: all asset prices are going down soon.

    The problem when people use the last recession as a benchmark is that it wasn’t simply a recession, it was a credit crisis.

    I’ve lived through several recessions. I’m hoping to live through several more.

      IPO millionaires are a small portion of the total buyers. Also, their target house prices are different as well (1+ Million). The economics of that segment is quite different than entry level.

      1+ million houses are selling for 150-250 below asking price right now with hardly any offers for a while.

    Looking forward to it - a chance to gain assets at pennies on the dollar.
