Hello BP,So I had planned to house hack (live-in flip) over a year ago, and I planned on talking to lenders and getting the whole loan process started in March and hopefully done by May, to put offers on houses and close in June/July.

I gave him a 30 day notice to leave on March 1 as he was fighting with other tenants, and he still has yet to leave.

Most units did not open until March 6 or later.

This is another small example of having fewer buyers in the market.But overall, there are still more buyers than sellers, and prices continue to go up.In March, San Diego County’s median home price (combination of resale condos and single-family homes) hit a new high of $805,000.

😳 Having a back up buyer already under contract we took option B and terminated.Buyer #2 was happy to step in and take over the contract.

Back in March 2022, the Feds were planning to raise rates by .5%, but only raised it by .25% due to the war overseas.

Black Knight's March 2022 mortgage data report makes these key points... see the full report here: https://www.blackknightinc.com/black-knights-first-look-at-march-2022-mortgage-data/?

Here is the caveat, I recently purchased a 3 bedroom 2.5 bath townhouse at market price just a few months ago in March 2022.

In March, I ended up signing with the New York Mets and was on my way to Spring Training in April.

Austin had already returned to pre-pandemic job numbers by May of last year:In fact, on a percentage basis, Austin's employment numbers outperformed all other U.S. metros from Feb. 2020 to Mar. 2022:These job numbers largely explain the tremendous and continued demand for Austin metro housing that, in combination with extremely low supply, produced a roughly 55% increase in the median home price in the 24 months spanning March 2020 to March 2022.
