Nope. permalink fedilink source hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] Idreamofcheesy@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months ago No joke I've been watching the market for about two years. Our house is liveable but not ideal, so we're saving up and keeping an eye open. These people are insane. Bought the house 10 years ago, hoping to sell it for double. They'll sit on the site for 6 months, then I'll get an email saying they dropped it 5k. We're talking bumfuck nowhere, no house, and they want 10k per acre. One property was down the street from a freaking landfill. permalink fedilink source parent [–] paranoia@feddit.dk 5 points 3 months ago (1 child) Best case scenario for sellers in these oversupplied areas is that the prices stagnate until inflation catches up with an acceptable real value. However, when one large organisation needs to drop prices to move stock to handle loan repayment, the whole market will fall. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] figjam@midwest.social 6 points 3 months ago Can't wait for reality to catch up. permalink fedilink source parent [–] hayvan@piefed.world 3 points 3 months ago But, but muh invisible hand 😭 permalink fedilink source parent
