    True. Where can you go when you’re in the middle of the Pacific? Find like-minded folk ... wherever

    Had a few friends leave Hawaii. I mean indigenous, locals who have lived here all their life. Hawaii is a blue travesty, literally. Will have to leave it there before someone gets butthurt.

    The nail has been set and pounded a few times. Soon the $ won't be the WRC for a number of reasons, but mainly hyper-inflation and the destabilized part of the opposite side of the hemisphere. NATO troops on the ground in Ukraine and Putin about to pull the trigger. I guess when you can buy a couple chickens cheaper than a dozen eggs is when the dollar is worthless... No too far from it.

    Yeah, wasn't always this way. Same as California where I grew up during the 60s & 70s. Cali used to be a nice place. Not anymore. I enlisted in the military after high school and got stationed here in Hawaii back in 1980. Loved it here. met my wife of 43yrs now here. When I got discharged from the Army, I stayed. A certain collective has certainly screwed things up for the worse in paradise for sure. Only by God's grace are we able to hang on to make ends meet.

    Could be worse. Could be living in Turkey.

    I'm fed up too.
    Problem with the world is:
    1. There are too many people.
    2. The wealthy are greedy and could care less about everyone else.
    3. The politicians are wealthy and compulsive liars( all sides) (see #2)
    4. The media is dividing our nation and creating a hateful nation. I hate that...
    5. Regardless of what people are trying to do to help (the economy, the environment, the infrastructure, the security of our nation, the elderly, etc. etc., there are huge profits to be made and poor unsuspecting people to be exploited and that's okay because everyone else is doing it.
    6. There is no ELE type asteroid barreling towards earth to make it all better.

    Edit:
    7. Beer is not free nor easy to make.

    So, read this today.

    Pretty bleak.

    Also, there's implications here that because of aggressive rate hikes intended to cut inflation due to the housing market bubble and the gubmint printing money, the only reason the housing bubble hasn't crashed yet is price stabilization. The housing prices have plateaued and it's not because the market has found balance. It's because the cooling of the credit markets due to higher risks for borrowers means less applications for loans and subsequently less competition driving values up.

    The feds haven't cut inflation, they've just staved it off so it doesn't coincide with the election cycle

    The German economy is kind of struggling -- and officially in recession (because they define recession as two consecutive quarters of negative growth... which we don't... anymore :#).
    The economy in the US is -- really, really odd these days.

    I think it's being driven up on purpose by all this free money the Gov't has been printing. It is an illusion which is going to make the fall that much harder.

    Housing market here has held steady. But the rental market has
    fallen on hard times. Rental housing rents are falling and houses
    are vacant longer.
    Restaurant prices are out of control. I'm sure more people will
    be staying home. A sit down meal is going to cost $60 for two.
    And that's watching the budget.

    The stock market is propped up by cost of goods....ie we are not selling more we are just paying more.

    The stock market reality is things are set up so that there's a
    Steady increase in money coming in. So prices go up.
    Gone are the old guidelines of stock price to profit ratios.
    Now that everyone is an investor the sky is the limit.
    So let the good times roll.

    As of tonight in the Omaha metro area I made a search for only single-family detached residences (no condos or town homes) the MLS shows:

    Only 1063 active listings, of which 524 are new construction and 539 are existing homes.

    The 524 new construction have an average list price of $557,347 with an average of 89 days on market.
    The 539 existing homes have an average list price of $516,446 with an average of 19 days on market.

    There are 498 pending sales of new construction, average LP $521,482, average 39 days on market.
    There are 1032 pending sales of existing homes, average LP $356,016, average 8 days on market.

    There are only 108 active listings of existing homes between $200,000 and $300,000.
    There are only 85 active listings of existing homes listed for less that $200,000.

    The lowest priced new homes are tract-built split-entry (or split-foyer, or bi-level) whatever your market calls them. Smallest have 1242 SF GLA, probably 300 sf finished basement, two car garage, right at $290,000, then upward very fast from there, depending on location, extras...

    So our market is strong, even residential rental is strong, hard to find a decent apartment for less than $1,500/month. Very low vacancy rates.

    Commercial, industrial are strong a lot going up (Google, Amazon, Mutual of Omaha (new skyscraper in the CBD)...
    However, retail and office space (for sale and for lease) have an over supply.

    So things are okay here for now. Just not enough home inventory. Still seeing multiple offers with
    escalation clauses, buyers waiving inspections and appraisal gaps.

    Obviously your area could be drastically different.

    Housing market will be fine. My home is about back to its peak. AZ home market getting hot again. The commercial real estate sector though is about to come crashing down real hard.

    ^^^ That does seem to be in the cards (as they say) -- heard a piece on Marketplace tonight talking about the uncertainty of commercial real estate.

    Commercial real estate relies on commerce, of which has come to an abrupt and artificial lull.

    While commercial real estate will and is taking a dump, corporations are slowly laying off people in rounds. Once that gains momentum, and people can't pay their mortgages....boom, the private sector housing will come down. Inflation looks to have no relief in the near future also adding to the hurt.

    If nobody has noticed lately, most our problems are engineered, created, until you've had enough and comply, or stfu.
