Quote from @Andrew Syrios:

I didn't seem like a crash to me, it was more of a dip or plateau or perhaps a freeze given the volume of sales went down fairly substantially too.

Our crash was in the # of transactions taking place in Memphis. The number of sales is down something like 50% in some of our zip codes. 

Our crash was not in the value of homes. We've seen prices remain relatively flat (and even increase in some areas), which is overall good news for buyers and sellers in light of the predictions people had in late 2022.

@Andrew Syrios, I think that's what you've experience and what you're saying above, right?

Do you agree that a real estate crash happened in 2023?

Personally, I've owned a property in this same block for over a decade. And, I don't plan to sell it any time soon!

If @James Martin and @Dean Harris pretty much agree, then you better believe it!  They are both the gold standard when it comes to Memphis real estate investing!
