    As a realtor in my opinion, a housing market crash is imminent due to the high number of individuals who purchased homes above the asking price despite the low interest rates. These buyers find themselves in precarious situations as housing prices decline, leaving them without any equity. If they become unable to afford their homes, foreclosure becomes a likely outcome. Even attempting to sell would not yield any profits. This scenario is expected to impact a significant number of people, particularly in light of the anticipated surge in layoffs and the rapid increase in the cost of living.

    Good it should of crashed years ago . Peoples fault for paying ridiculous prices for a property as that only made it acceptable to these bloody estate agents and the market .

    I'm 54 and my wife and I are VERY worried about our future, gas and food prices rising daily. We have had our savings dwindle with the cost of living into the stratosphere, and we are finding it impossible to replace them. We can get by, but can't seem to get ahead. My condolences to anyone retiring in this crisis, 30 years nonstop just for a crooked system to take all you worked for.

    I predict a housing crash due to people buying homes over asking price, lacking equity if prices decline further. Foreclosure becomes likely if they can't afford the house, and selling won't yield profits. With anticipated layoffs and rising living costs, many individuals may face this situation.

    UK house prices dropped -0.1% in the month of July according the Halifax House Price Index. Don’t listen to these prols on YouTube who sensationalise for your attention. You can get accurate info via the public indexes and save yourself valuable minutes.

    This is financial advice and I never give financial advice: DONT LEAVE DURING THE BEAR. If you don’t want to invest…learn. If you don’t want to learn…build. If you don’t want to build observe. DO SOMETHING…other than leave. There is so much opportunity here. Take advantage!

    With markets tumbling, inflation soaring, the Fed imposing large interest-rate hike, while treasury yields are rising rapidly—which means more red ink for portfolios this quarter. How can I profit from the current volatile market, I'm still at a crossroads deciding if to liquidate my $275k bond/stocck portfolio

    Everyone has been waiting for this “crash” for years, especially in the last 3 since Covid was less of a thing.
    But it won’t crash, it just won’t! Unfortunately the MASSIVE housing shortage in the UK is probably enough to kill this idea alone.

    There are so many doom mongers on YouTube predicting this “crash”, but as usual it will likely be somewhere in the middle and similar to what we have already experienced, just a slight decrease in house prices.

    The only asset worth anything in the UK is housing, especially close to London. The demand outstrips most of the economic factors. Look at the average growth year on year.

    Economic factors/cost of living/mortgage rates/interest rates may fluctuate but it’s not going to effect things too much. The only thing that would crash the market is a catastrophic turn of events such as we saw in 2008.

    Its not a great thing that house prices are falling, if there is a slump in demand then there will be decline in supply. Land owners and developers will sit on land or freeze development proposals until its more profitable.

    The only way to deal with this issue is public housing to be built steadily for those that need it most which is about 25 percent the population.

    Well, saying that Putin invasion of Ukraine is responsible for all our problems is not very honest. The truth is the stupid sanctions voted but the west are responsible for the current situation. When you depend on other countries for your energy supplies, remember that your options are limited! Because of the decisions of our “amazing” and very bright politicians, we are paying the consequences of their lack of judgement.

    I wish I had a pound every time I heard the housing market was about to crash. I'd be a multi millionaire by now. The whole thing is rigged and artificially propped up.

    Great content and I thank you for breaking it down!! Even in the current crypto dip, I’m happy I can smile back at my portfolio of $86,700 made from my weekly trade within a short period.!!

    What does putin have to do with this I don’t fully understand. Now I can understand that uk and eu tried to scare Russia but placing sanctions on t them which proved to be a massive mistake.

  20. @pharmacistweb3947

    January 5, 2024 at 5:52 am

    Correction it wasnt caused by Putins invasion it was caused by our utterly insane approach. We sanctioned Russia and someone blew up the pipeline.

    Interestingly, you didn't mention in the video that the major cause for house price bubbles are real estate parasites calling themselves real estate "investors" exploiting buy-to-let schemes and inflate the prices by soaking up the supply. In other words saying, people borrowing money they don't have to buy houses they don't need, to let it to people in need that can't afford to buy and at the same time enslaving them to pay high rents and taking away or pushing further opportunity to save for their own homes. And the government doesn't do anything to stop that roller-coaster but they are quick to reduce tax free allowances on dividend income or cap gains for small investors – real investors that try to break through. Shame.

    There are large discrepencies regionally. 2x the average london wage buys a house in the North of England. Any government allowing a housing crash will be unelectable for decades.

    House pricing is significantly affected by demand, so i assume there was a lack of building new homes in the UK, or perhaps a rapid rise in population?

    The average price of a home in Frankfurt is about 7,751 euros per square metre, so a 100 sq metre apartment would cost about 775,100 euros. The average salary in Frankfurt is about 54,000 euros, which means a 100 sqm apartment in Frankfurt is about 14 times the average salary. Frankfurt is expensive, mainly because of rising population, but I did not realise it was more expensive than London? On the other hand this could be due to apartment size differences?

    This report is all over the place, on one hand the housing market is unfair as it benefits the old then says House prices are failing which would be good for the young.
    Hints one of the issues is the green belt but if you build on it you would be up in arms about the destruction of the environment.
    The amount of oil is to be reduced which you want but then complain prices are increasing.
    Unfortunately this was always going to happen with measures that were taken during Covid, people should have planned and been ready. It would be the same if not worse if others were in power it’s the nature of things
