Your Q is most likely going to be deleted Tony Lewis. Covid, Wuhan flu, China virus questions are not allowed here.

Hot & heavy...the pipeline will be full and nothing but prosperity for those that take the leap. Real Estate is a helper not a hindrance and a good agent a must Tony Lewis ...The question is: What is a good agent? How would they know?

Hello Tony Lewis I think, real estate market might be impacted if the Feds raise the interest rate.

Your Q got deleted a few days ago & you couldn't remember that?

Now that you've changed the Q - I think it is going to be great. Prices are not going to stabilize. It will still be a sellers market all the way.

2022 will be another year focused on doing what I do best ... helping people sell their home or the family home.

Buyers will be referred to another agent. 

Inventory will remain low. Demand will remain high.

Multiple offers are expected with offer prices substantially over the list price. More likely than not offers will be non-contingent. 

I do not see any stabilization in prices in my market. My last listing sold for $1.8M, $400,000 over list price. 

Prices will continue to increase but at a slower rate. There will still be too few homes for sale to meet buyers’ demands. Interest rates will increase so that the higher cost of buying will remove some potential buyers from the market. With hard work and dedication, I expect to have another productive year.

Each year is a walk of faith in this business. I will conitune marketing, working on line, interacting with my base, and enjoying life as I know it on Maui.

The sources of what my thoughts are come from 3 places:

1. Going on 23 years of market experience.

2. This Source which has been 98% on the money the last 20 years

3. That Source which I take with a grain of salt

I expect that it will be busy, yet I have bookmarked a 3 month trip in the middle of the year, hopefully I can get lots of work done while traveling the Alcan and beyond.

It should be a very good year unless Rates really soar !

The market will stay strong, increase in inventory after the holidays.

Onward and upward! Work your plan and the rest will take care of itself.

The Fed has said they will raise rates multiple times next year.  Depending on how much and how often that could do something.  Could spur buyers to act before rates go up.  If they go up too much, too quickly (like inflation has), it could cause a sputter.

Things, in general, have been somewhat slower lately, maybe because of the seasonal holiday slowness, maybe not.

I suspect that inventory levels will either remain about the same or increase slightly.  Prices will continue to rise, but Biden's hyperinflation will put the hurt into people's wallets.  I will be working with fewer buyers, especially when gas goes over $6/gallon for regular, which it is sure to given his backward energy policies.  Probably within the first half of 2022.  Hopefully, the mid-term elections will reign in some of these policies and out-of-control spending.

There will continue to be a shortage of affordable housing for many families.

Continuing to help buyers buy and sellers sell! 

My Expectations:

1. House prices higher still

2. Mortgage rates higher

3. More people leaving California

4. More combined multi generation homes

5. Baby Boomer continuing transfer of wealth to children and grand children
