There is no telling what will happen given the uncertainty of the direction we are headed as a Nation.

SOUTH comes immediately to mind.  Let's see what changes may come about during the next 90 days.

When 2022 closed, it marked the worst year for stocks since 2008. A crap shoot comes to mind, however, I will not predict what can/will/might/won't happen!

Invest in what you know. Which is why my lifetime investments have been real estate, rarely stocks: 401K the exception. The recession will lower rates and yes, any fluctuation in the Stock Market the media doom and glooms is great for real estate. Real Estate almost always out performs the stock market long term.

it all ebbs and flows.  But as for land, like my papa said.... they aren't making anymore and long term real estate has been the best wealth builder in our nation's history.

That will always come.  In bear markets real estate investment does well, in bull markets it does not.

I've seen an increase in real estate investment out here for many years, especially the Air B&B/short term rental space.  The amount of untis available has doubled and tripled within the last year out here and nationally.

I made money in the stock market last year.  Options, puts.  You can make money in the down market if you study the market.

In our market, thousands of rental units are needed. Large multifamily developments are taking place to meet some of those needs.

I don't see it happening where we live. Unless investors have decent amount to put down for a down payment, as it is investors are having a hard time trying to rent their new properties with the insane amounts they want for rent. I agree real estate is a good investment, it always has been for me. As with anything you buy low and sell high and our real estate is high and it doesn't look like it's coming down much.

The rates are not that high and the stock market is not that bad.

Both will continue to improve as the year moves forward.

Competition is fierce for real estate investors here in Central Massachusetts. With rents at all-time highs, both experienced and new investors are scouring the market. Can't tell you how many first-time buyers I talked to last year who wanted a 2 or 3 family home.

I think some will invest in real estate but my guess is it will be cash buyers who liquidate some of their stocks and use the proceeds to buy real estate. I have been working with a couple clients who want to buy an investment property here but between the high prices and high rates, it would not cash flow unless they pay cash.

Even if so, the trend would not be reflected in the day-to-day residential market. Investors might shift to funds that are heavier in real estate. Remember, investors that can shift markets are institutional investors, the big buck insurance companies and other funds.
