As elections get closer we will likely see consumer confidence start to become more uncertain due to the political climate and then resume again after elections are finalized.ibuyers and hedge funds are also ramping up acquisitions which is further pushing demand and lack of affordability.If/when the Feds do lower rates we will see a temporary improvement in affordability, however we do expect that small window to close quickly as lower rates will bring a lot of pent up demand back into the market which will push home values higher and cause affordability to worsen.With all factors considered here in the local Las Vegas and Henderson market we are encouraging buyers to buy sooner rather than later while they can get lower prices and seller concessions and then if needed refi later when rates come down and they have more equity.

But I know I made the right call when I sold some properties end of 2021/early 2022, and did not 1031ex, but rather paid taxes and eliminated debt on the properties I wanted to keep.I’m hoping to keep what I have for as long as a I can stand managing them (at least they are nice properties in prime locations…but as I get older my tolerance for hassles diminishes ;) So I don’t fool myself for a second acknowledging that there are all kinds of external factors that may compel me to sell.
