BEWARE! FED RATE HIKE COULD BURST BUBBLES KATHY FETTKE

How would a slow down in stocks affect real estate?

1. Cities that are more dependent on stock market fluctuations would be more affected by a stock market crash( SF, NY, Seattle).
2. Mortgage interest rates would decline if there were a correction in the stock market as more investors flock to the safety of bonds – which are more tied to the 10 year Treasury bond market.
3. Commercial real estate would get hammered while landlords could fare well as more people are forced to rent, driving rents up.
Now would be a very good time to“ cash out” and sell your high priced assets while the market is hot. You can exchange those properties for low­priced, high cash flow properties in recession­proof markets.
