i think there are a total of 6 planned rate hikes for 2022 alone. we may see a genuine cool down in buying and a massive amount of unfortunate people with ARM loans going broke.

i don't have the stats but i doubt people are taking out ARM loans after what happened in 08. plus banks are stricter about who they give loans out too. i hope we getting a housing crash in the next 2-3 years but seems unlikely with the way things are going.

I was house hunting last year. I didn't purchase anything, but I was able to find places I can afford. A year later looking in the same areas and the prices of these homes have really jumped up. Even the fixer uppers.
Are you buying investment properties or to live in? If the latter you should buy in the area you want to live based in and not try to time the market.

I'm timing the market only because I want to pay off some debts and go in clean. But I'm looking for a property to live in. I also WFH, and I will be looking at places still in state, but away from NYC, but can still get to the office easily if needed.
