Going into 2019-2020 market here in the Valley

[Mazz Gino]

Hey BP, I am a new realtor in Az via NJ where I was an agent for 3+ years. I am starting to hear some undertones in the industry that have me questioning the market environment that we are going into in 2019. I’ve heard that mortgage applications are down, First American Title has started layoffs, Meritage Homes has started layoffs, and I’ve heard that something is going on over at Fidelity. All this chatter leads me to believe that the larger institutional firms are gearing up for some sort of market slowdown. Does anyone have any feedback or insights that they would like to share about what they think we are heading into in the new year?
