This is because, despite recent layoffs in the tech sector and the broader economic factors mentioned above, the fundamental "boom town" story of the Austin economy so far remains largely unchanged.According to the Austin Chamber of Commerce, “Austin added 71,000 jobs, growth of 5.8%, in the 12 months ending in January, making it the third best performing among the top 50 metros.”The Austin economy made up all of 2020’s pandemic-related job losses by April 2021.

I'm sure we will see more businesses that close for good and associated layoffs/ unemployment. 

San Francisco Housing Market will be impacted the most with the large layoffs in the tech industry.Quote from @Osazee Edebiri: Quote from @James Park: The 4 Top Housing Markets from Dec 2021 - Dec 2022 are as follows1) Miami (Florida) Appreciation 15.90%2) Tampa (Florida) Appreciation 13.93%3) Atlanta (Georgia) Appreciation 10.42%4) Charolotte (North Carolina) Appreciation 9.88%The 4 Bottom Housing Markets from Dec 2021 - Dec 2022 are as follows1) San Francisco (California) Depreciation 15.90%2) Seattle (Washington) Depreciation 13.93%3) Portland (Oregon) Appreciation 1.10%4) San Diego (California) Appreciation 1.59%Looking at this data, it appears that the Housing market in the Southeast will weather the storm better than the West Coast & Northwest.How do these numbers factor in supply?

After the layoff I scored my best deals which would not have been possible while working a 9-5.

They are scared if all these hiring freezes will turned to layoffs. 

If you can afford no rent for two or three months fine but why should a landlord go out of business or have to file for bankruptcy because a tenant isn't getting paid, PG&E is going to file for bankruptcy, are you gonna evict PGE workers if they cant find another job quickly if there are massive layoffs? 

Although currently limited by government policies, companies like RealBlocks, propy and BrickBlocks, with the ongoing efforts to ease securities laws for real estate, could make real estate investing accessible to everyone, just like Robinhood made stock market investing accessible to everyone.

Large layoff or something about him?

I had messed around with robinhood and acorns while in college but never really committed to it. 

You cannot take a state with less than a million people and have layoffs of hundreds at a time across the state without fall out to real estate prices.
