ParticipantDidn’t stop the price increase in the 70s.
Rates were mostly 7-9% until 1979-80, when they shot up to 11%.
Under 3% to over 5% represents a bigger % variance than existed through much of the 70s.

ParticipantOne more coincidence or similarity to current times is the boomers were just hitting their 30’s. but come 89-early 90’s in LA at least when the cold war was winding down things went south fairly quickly. Took almost to 97-99 before the next bubble got really going and housing (in LA) to really recover.

I remember how rough things were in early 90s around here. I went back to grad school and then moved back east for a couple years to finish those degrees. Very fortunate to have come back in 97 ready to buy my first home. I’ve made many very smart decisions along the way but they were all made possible by the luck of that game changing timing that created the opportunity of a lifetime for me that I recognized and jumped at

ParticipantRates bottomed around 2.75% for a 30 year fixed? If so the move to 4% is massive in terms of % increase. Given how much greater our entire economy (not just housing) is levered to interest rates, I’ll be shocked if this doesn’t blunt to top appreciation.

ParticipantIm below 2.75% so I guess I beat it again:)
Again people keep missing the point Ive been trying to make. When rates were that low the lenders didnt offer anything but 30 yr and if hybrid adjustable (10/1, 7/1. 5/1) the rate was not all that different. We have all gotten used to only 30 yr rates.
Youve all forgotten about those hybrid products. When I bought my home in 1999 it was with a 5/1 ARM at 7.125%. Virtually no one keeps a loan for 30 years and few are still in place 10 years later. We are going to see the 10/1 and 7/1 come roaring back into favor very quickly. Its what the market always does when rates are no longer falling. Mark my words this market has more legs than you think. Im not saying more 20%+ years but we arent done going up and we are not falling appreciably anytime in the next few years. Feel free to bookmark this post. This will be yet another prediction I’ll be proven right on

I would bet that the percentage of people keeping their 30 year loans more than 10 years will increase in the coming decades. A lot of people with really low rates ain’t going no where, and probably won’t get a good opportunity to refinance. Just a hunch.

I think with low 30 year interest rates locked in 3% and below, that’s below where people say a 4% decent investment is. So yes, I’d think some folks even will eventually be a landlord even if they wanted to move elsewhere. New buyers however, I can seem getting 10/1 arms.

interest only
Maybe equity sharing.Who knows, the issue this time is we are not overbuilt so a big housing crash is unlikely IMO.

ParticipantHypothetical:
Two contrasting rates and expectations:
30 year @ 2.75% – inflation at 2% annualized with long term expectations in the 2-3% range.
30 year @ 4% – inflation at 7% annualized with long term expectations in the 3-7% range.
Isn’t the second loan less expensive than the first?

Who cares? Apparently you do, or else why would you comment on this? Seems to me that deep down you are worried, very worried about this whole bubble thing going POP.
But really there is no debating someone who truly believes RE isn’t interest rate sensitive, it is like trying to argue with a flat earther.

Huh? This makes no sense whatsoever…..
Higher loan rates, you would see more cash buyers. Lower loan rates, you would see more smart money that would want to put the least amount of money into their house because rates are so cheap.
With a 3% 30 year, why would you want to own outright, unless you simply had too much money than what you know to do with it?
What I’m more curious about is out of these $1million homes, how many of them are putting 20-25% down and what sort of demographics they are.
If I were to guess I would say the bulk of them are 20-25% or round up to a $1million loan @ around 3% …enginerds at a decent company, $20-25K monthly income, carrying a $5000/month mortgage… Easy peasy…

ParticipantWho said anything about cash buyers? Just did a run through recent sales in MM in the 1.2 to 1.5 range. Pretty much all of em put down 20 to 30%. Why would they put down more? A quick cross reference with LinkedIn shows lots of techy couples at QCOM, Apple, Amazon etc. Figure it costs about $5K/month to borrow $1M with rates above 4% which is not a stretch for folks with $20 to 35K monthly HH incomes. Well within ratios and most of these folks are pretty frugal otherwise. There are tons of folks like that

I mean, they can’t possibly be working here locally in San Diego in one of them local offices since clearly we haven’t seen any meaningful job expansion in San Diego recently, right? I mean, these people who work at Amazon, Apple must all have to go back to work at Amazon and Apple headquarters not based out of San Diego, and it will be a firesale home prices, right?

Don’t worry, higher interest rates will pop the bubble just like they did in mid-2000s. Never in history has the economy been so dependent on near zero interest rates and Fed manipulating the markets (by literally printing money to purchase mortgage debt). If the Fed actually follows through on their words, it is game over. (Big If I know).

Whatever, now you are just turning into a douche like SDR.
Point is interest rates are going up substantially, very quickly. If you think RE prices are going to continue going up in this environment then I’ll leave you to your fantasy. That suggests that you don’t believe the historically low interest rates these last few years didn’t fuel the current RE boom in the first place. You can’t have it both ways. -

I just prefer the market distortions correct themselves because it is truly hurting a great majority of people in this country and only benefiting the wealthy class.

Participant[quote=deadzone][quote=sdrealtor][quote=deadzone][quote=sdrealtor]As would the equity and housing crash you’ve been cheering for the last couple years. Pot meet kettle[/quote]
Not even close. Housing “correction” of 30% or so would have minimal impact on the vast majority of the population that either don’t own real estate, or have significant equity built up. Would mainly impact the investor class. And for everyone else, prices of things would go down. Win/Win[/quote]
Uhhhh…..no and you are cheering for full on crash. Hypocrite[/quote]
What’s a full on crash in your book? Yes lower prices in general are better for everyone except the investor class. What are you cheering for?
You are obviously a fan boy for the expansion of the wealth divide. Basically an elitist prick who masquerades as a liberal democrat.[/quote]Uh, huh? Investor class can make money whether home prices are high or low, it depends on which kind of investor.
If prices are lower, more investors with lesser deep pockets have more opportunity to buy too. Personally if prices correct, count me in and I’ll be happy to jump right back into buying more.
I think that’s the difference dz between you and others. You have an ax to grind and somehow are hell bent on a crash in order for you to be made whole. I don’t think most people here really care if this do correct, because (1) we’ve already taken advantage of the GOOAL crash of 2008 and now have a much stronger financial base to build off of so that (2) if things do correct, were more financially equipped to jump on that too. We just think you’ll be disappointed.
But I do understand how you might need things to crash in order to feel made whole. Good luck to you on that one.
Politics and political parties have nothing to do with your financial well being. But a lot of people like to blame politicians for their own poor financial decisions. That’s the case on both side. Not sure why you would bring that up in this context, besides again trying to grind an ax.

ParticipantInterest rates are headed back down.
Already, real interest rates are -3% (7% inflation 4% mortgage).
Inflation is probably headed back down in a year or two. We’ll be back to 1.5-3% inflation and 2.5-3% rates.
But while inflation itself can be hard to predict, real interest rates are easier.
Rich people have more and more money they want to invest rather than purchase consumption items.
The pool of creditworthy borrowers, however, is in permanent demographic decline.
Places like Germany and Japan, where demographic decline is more advanced than the USA, have had deeply negative real rates for a long time.

I suspect that deadzone is quoting the rate listed on Mortgage News Daily. https://www.mortgagenewsdaily.com/
3/23/2020 the stated rate is 4.68%. Keep in mind that is an average for loans available yesterday. When sdrealtor quotes that a client just closed at such and such, that loan was started a month or more ago when rates were lower. And with points you can always lower your rate.
From my experience Mortgage news daily is well worth following if you want to see what rates are doing. The question/issue isn’t what rates are today, the question is how will these increased rates impact real estate. So far inventory numbers tell me the answer is not so much. Of course, maybe it’s too soon to tell.

It’s not just points that can change the rate, loan amount and credit score play a huge role as well. I just checked 30 years fixed if I would refi today and I’m seeing rates @ 4% with 0 point.
Go here and check for yourself: https://www.zillow.com/mortgage-rates/Just like in real estate, you don’t buy an average house, you buy a house. Same goes for loan, you don’t get an average loan, you get a loan (based on your condition).

That is correct. This is an average and mortgage news daily is a trusted source often quoted by CNBC and other financial media. Of course individual loans may vary, but all loans are going up significantly in rate based on just a few months ago. And it is only going to get worse. Fed is not only raising fed funds rate this year, they are also purchasing less MBS. With less Fed involvement, there will be a lot less interest in purchasing MBS and rates will go up due to increased risk. The market has been artificially propped up by the Fed for 12 years. The Fed fueled this housing boom and with them reversing course, you can’t logically believe it won’t have severe negative consequences to housing prices.

ParticipantAnd while National is important in the end all real estate is local. Driven by supply which is as low as anywhere here and demand which is as high as anywhere. You can follow inventory trends nationally on calculated risk among others who break it down by market. We are in the tightest market in the country.
So someday when things turn south as they inevitably will nationally and deadzone will try to claim victory from his rented hovel we will chuckle from our comfortable homes knowing we are both safely ensconced exactly where we’ve been all along.

Reading comprehension is tough[/quote]For you apparently. Like SDR perhaps math isn’t your strong suit. Do you also dispute that interest rates are going up? Who cares if SD rates are slightly lower or higher than the national average, that is irrelevant. They are going up everywhere at roughly the same rate. SDR thinks SD is isolated in some type of a utopian economic bubble. Sorry it doesn’t work that way. Everything is connected to the Fed.

Actually I think 10/1 has not. A few months ago they barely existed and pricing was awful as no reason to take one. Now coming back with sharper pricing. Not saying they are down but definitely not up substantially. It doesn’t work how you think it works

ParticipantDoes anyone have historical data that highlights the correlation and causation effect of high interest rates to San Diego home sales volume and price. Maybe overlay interest rate over one of Rich’s graphs.
Simply put: how does high rate (e.g. 6% 30 year mortgage) affect sales volume, and sale price?
Home prices, like many complex real world Y-variable on a mathematical equation, probably are impacted by a handful of dynamic X variables (X1…X2…X3…etc.), it probably is never that simple and straight forward if X1 happens (interest rate), then Y will occur (sales price).

The challenge with that approach is rates dont rise in a vacuum. Often they rise in a booming economy or with inflation which is bullish for home prices.

Exactly, which is why I keep on bringing up the 70s, because that gives us an extreme where rate went up drastically and housing price went up drastically too. So, I see no causation between rate vs prices. -

[/quote]No one, except you, is making any predictions on when rates will start affecting purchases. You, however, are hell bent on “proving” it’s soon.
Let’s hypothetically say that it’s 10 years (length of a 10/1 arm) before rates really matter. Did you win? Yes, from an argument perspective. From a financial/home purchase perspective, you probably lost. If you’re going to be waiting 10 years before your first home purchase, ouch. Again, the only person you are arguing with is yourself.
Hope it’s worth it for you.

You are correct and of course I knew that and was just working over deadzone because it’s yet another example of how he does not understand in the slightest how real estate works. For that matter no one buys an average house or takes out an average mortgage. Average rates quoted on a site like that are for the country not here. The quality of borrower here is generally substantially higher than most places. The loans are also much bigger While still in the conventional range so the rates /fees are lower.[/quote]Ok got it, so interest rates aren’t going up in San Diego?[/quote]
Reading comprehension is tough[/quote]He lives in a dark hole unaware all real estate is local. Some places it was flat during the bubble while others doubled. Some places are up a little during the pandemic expansion some are up a lot. No place is average except scardey’s kitchen but even that is underconstruction and being remodeled! Gooal!

ParticipantI think the other angle is people just simply move into a different loan product for example 10/1 arms. This might seem like a bad product but is it? For example I took out a 30 year loan originally refinanced 30-year a few times and then refinance to a 15 year at the end of it I paid off my loan in 10 years. 10/1 probably would have been okay for me, might have been better

Participant[quote=deadzone]30 year fixed over 5% today according to Mortgage News Daily.[/quote]
When the pandemic first hit I thought, “Boy, that will clobber the housing market.” After all, the economy was likely to go into recession, and people would become cautious. No way people would start buying houses like crazy. Of course, I was about as wrong as I could be.
A year ago, when interest rates started rising, I thought, “Boy, if interest rates get to 5%, that will cause the housing market to slam on the brakes. People won’t be able to afford these crazy prices with 5% loans.” Yet here we are with a housing market that is still rocking. Inventory in the area I watch (La Jolla) has dropped in the last couple of weeks from its already incredibly low level. So it seems I was wrong about 5% interest rates slowing the market.
Now I don’t know what to think. It seems hard to imagine that the pace of price increases will continue. But I’ve thought that for a long time and prices just keep going up at an astounding rate. Inflation will help justify some of the increases, but until inventory increases a lot I doubt we see price drops. Then again, I’ve been wrong before, maybe I am again.
