Don’t tell personal stories of how you guys fell head over heels ..got married had a dream of investing and you want him to be your personal mentor .stick to the script .

No noticeable spike at all.

I dont see that causing a big up tick in defaults. plus the buyers were much more qualified.I can see it on teh commerical side though .. with those that bought cash flow that only works at X and now they go to refi and its Y .. as they had 20 due in 5 loans.. i can see saw pain there. did not read the article but I will .. but wanted to comment on why i dont see a big spike in defaults being tied to interest rates.. i see sales slowing.. and such.. but not a direct line to defaults.

“before you do any, make sure you .......” wear flats instead of heels to look at properties.

Definitely expect a spike!

Sellers tend to take many months to see if interest rate spike was temporary and settles back down or now the increase is a (new normal) and seller has to adjust price to sell.
