Some Highlights
- The COVID-19 pandemic is causing an economic slowdown.
- The good news is, home values actually increased in 3 of the last 5 U.S. recessions and decreased by less than 2% in the 4th.
- All things considered, an economic slowdown does not equal a housing crisis, and this will not be a repeat of 2008.
- If you’re planning to buy a home, but your strategy is to wait to see if home prices fall to 2008 levels, think again.
