Home Prices to Continue Rise at Slowing Pace in 2022

Looking ahead to 2022, where will home prices go?

REAL ESTATE NEWS

Demand for new homes has grown, driving up home prices up to 18% over the last few years. It’s been years since home prices have increased that much. The current expectation is that home prices will continue to rise, but at a much slower pace. Somewhere between 2% and 12% for the coming year, 2022, is what national lenders are projecting. With a ten percent swing in projections, it’s clear there is not a consensus of what the rate of U.S. home price growth will look like in 2022. When discussing home prices, remember that local and national markets and prices vary substantially. Inner city real estate often does the exact opposite of suburban or rural real estate. When the safest suburban neighborhoods shot up during the virus hysteria, urban home prices dropped. Take a look at what the Downtown Los Angeles real estate market is doing recently in the November DTLA Real Estate Market Report.

There’s a consensus in the real estate industry that price growth will continue to decelerate as the current growth rate simply isn’t sustainable long term. One school of thought says that interest rates will start moving back up, which will cool demand for homes. Since rates can’t go much lower, that seems like a safe bet, according to Fortune Magazine. With an expected reduction in demand due to the higher interest rates, inflation caused by fed spending and radical Federal Reserve money printing may be the only forces keeping home prices from falling. Nobody can predict how long this stagflation will last before the inevitable economic recession of the Greater Depression of the 2020s occurs. #entarispowerful #homeprices2022.

Stagflation and Real Estate Prices Update

REAL ESTATE NEWS

LOS ANGELES, CA — We are witnessing the Greater Depression of the 2020s, but this time, it’s different. We can’t see it. It’s cloaked in a heavy veil of virus hysteria and historically radical fed policy, otherwise known as massive money printing. The stock market has already crashed, but, that too is disguised by the Fed’s frantic focus on punchbowl policies.

Basic awareness of stagflation has hit an all-time high. While the 2008 financial crisis generated the most curiosity about possibilities of inflation and stagnation, today’s economy is a demonstration of the real-world effects of actual stagflation.

The beginning of runaway inflation appears as disrupted markets, supply chain delays, and product shortages. Industrial output is down. For real estate, home prices shoot up above the norm. For Downtown Los Angeles in particular, the three year funk has ended. Downtown L.A. home prices shot up dramatically in the last two months after falling for an extended time. The jump has primarily affected the properties in the upper echelon of price, quality and neighborhood safety. Lofts near to Skid Row, such as Little Tokyo lofts, are just a bit behind in enjoying a new recovery, an artificial recovery lifted by inflation, yet stunted by stagnation.

THE OPPORTUNITIES

The good news is that most assets, including real estate, are safe havens against inflation because a weak dollar drives up home prices. Other assets gain as well: gold, commodities, stocks; farm land, art, collectibles etc. It has proven even more true for the reigning royalty of ROI, blockchain cryptocurrency technologies. Bitcoin and ethereum have produced far more gains than any other asset, as they create new efficiencies, gain trust and benefit richly from dollar collapse.
