Sellers see May values buyers see housing crash. Interest rates rising

Nov 10, 2022
In November the housing market is in a difficult battle. Buyer think the housing market is crashing like 2008 because the fed keeps aggressively interest rates. This is pushing mortgage rates over 7%. Buyers can no longer afford housing and it is not affordable housing now throughout the country. Sellers are having a tough time accepting the new prices. Some places in the country like St. Petersburg and Tampa in Florida have not had that big of a decrease here in Tampa Bay. The housing market in other parts of the country like Las Vegas, Utah, Colorado have started to see a big decline. The housing crash has started in these places. But it is not like the housing crash of 2008 that was because of real estate and mortgages. Most people have nice equity in their homes and don’t have adjustable rate mortgages. Plus over 75% of homeowners with mortgage have mortgages under 4%. So I don’t see a housing crash in a lot of areas of the country. For now in this quickly shifting real estate market we must really analyze the our hyperlocal market and manage expectations. Listing Agent Tampa Bay and St. Petersburg, Florida.

Sacramento / Stockton Real Estate Report for 11/10/2022

The Sacramento / Stockton area real estate market once again is experiencing mortgage rates above 7.0%. However, with median home sales prices falling $80,000 in the past 7 months, home buyers are not seeing a huge jump in their payment. The housing inventory continues to remain high, which is giving buyers more choices and some bargaining power. Be cautious of the “buy now refinance later” mentality, it doesn’t always work out!

Bankrupt Voyager Digital Looks for New Buyer After FTX Goes Under
Wall Street Journal|11 hours ago
FTX won a bankruptcy auction in September to buy Voyager’s assets out of chapter 11 before collapsing into bankruptcy itself.
Miami-Dade County and the Miami Heat are ending their arena naming rights deal with bankrupt cryptocurrency firm FTX.
The county, which owns the arena, signed a 19-year, $135 million deal for the bayfront Heat homecourt’s name in 2021. After an initial balloon payment of $14 million, FTX was scheduled to make a $5.5 million payment in January.
The arena will still technically be referred to as FTX Arena for Saturday’s game between the Heat and Charlotte Hornets, but signage and the name will soon come down.
“The reports about FTX and its affiliates are extremely disappointing,” the county and team said in a joint statement. “Miami-Dade County and the Miami HEAT are immediately taking action to terminate our business relationships with FTX. We will be working together to find a new naming rights partner for the arena.”
FTX, a cryptocurrency exchange, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection Friday after a steep fall in crypto prices left the company unable to cover accounts as customers rushed to withdraw funds.
The deal in Miami was one of a number of sports marketing deals FTX had signed over the past few years, including sponsorship deals with the Golden State Warriors and Washington Wizards. Among top athletes who had FTX deals included Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady, Warriors guard Stephen Curry and tennis star Naomi Osaka.
FTX also entered into a deal with Mercedes for Formula One racing and a sponsorship deal with Major League Baseball, whose umpires wear the company’s logo. Earlier Friday, Mercedes said it would immediately remove FTX logos from its Formula One cars.
Less than a year after it acquired an office building near Farragut Square, Beacon Capital Partners has decided to sell it for a $1M loss.
The Boston-based real estate investment firm sold 1735 K St. NW for $15.5M to Bernstein Management Co., according to the D.C. recorder of deeds.
Beacon acquired the 97K SF, midblock property on Dec. 16 from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority for $16.5M. At the time, the property served as FINRA’s headquarters, but the regulator announced plans in October to move to 1700 K St., less than a block away.

American Airlines interest payments now exceed their revenue
from their 3Q 2022 Statement:
Total operating revenues: $13.462 billion

Okay, replace revenue with net income. They have a new CEO to straighten things out, but the outgoing CEO is still on the board if I recall correctly.
