Not sure who needs to hear this, but everyone needs to cool their jets regarding a housing market crash and rental properties. In my 35 years I’ve seen this movie before…and the sequels. Let’s take a peek at a Federal Reserve Chart of Historical Housing Prices and focus on the largest housing market correction of our lifetime. If you own rental properties, you need to ask yourself “am I really losing money if prices drop”. From the peak to the trough of the last “crash”, prices dropped 19%. You have 2 options when that happens…panic and sell at a loss, or sit back, collect your rent checks, maintain your property and, in the future, sell if you need to. The “value” of your house only matters when you are borrowing, when you sell, or when you pay taxes. Otherwise, chill out and cash your checks. This too shall pass. If you’re gonna be in rentals, you can’t be in it for the short term.

Application activity has picked up noticeably in the past few days. It sounds as if consumers think we might be nearing the bottom with respect to interest rates. Waiting for rates to fall while you miss out on housing appreciation might not make sense.
