It’s a great rental market but a tight housing market right now but I think it will loosen up down the road a bit.

during the "boom" times but COVID has loosened everything up and now 5% can be had in Manhattan, 6%-7% in Brooklyn and even 8% in the Bronx.

If the president elect manages to cut regulation (Dodd-Frank) or makes it easier for banks to make money (loosen lending standards) then we could see another few years of house appreciation (more Americans have the means to enter the housing market) before the actual bubble pops.I think a couple interesting data points to keep an eye on are:tradingeconomics.com : home ownership rate + New Home Sales data show that we are far from a normal situation compared to the previous decades.

The blue leaders and planners know we need 1500 more units to meet current demand and are loosening a little bit.  

You'll need a 1 1/16 socket and a long pipe with a breaker bar to loosen the old rod.

A kind lady at Lowe's (where I had gone to buy Drain-O) suggested I use vinegar and baking soda to loosen up any gunk, then use the cheap plastic "snake" to get the blockage out.

The credit requirements are going to continue to loosen.  

Prices in prime neighborhoods took a 10% dip.It's unlikely for the event to repeat but I expect some loosening up in next year or so.

I know the lenders I work with have started loosening their standards on conventional loans in condo buildings and some even have loan programs for "non-warrantable" condos.  

Interesting that they say "allow anymore" I wonder if they did in the past, and when they might loosen that restriction in the future?
