The relationship between the stock market and real estate may not seem obvious at first, but the two are often more connected than you might think. While they don’t directly affect each other, investor and consumer confidence usually depends on how the market is performing.
When the media starts focusing on a falling stock market and warning of a possible recession, people tend to be cautious. They cut back on spending, avoid big purchases, and may even hesitate to move forward with buying a home. This fear can ripple through the economy and sometimes push us closer to an actual recession.
The last time I saw a real drop in home prices was when the stock market was also falling, and mortgage rates were declining. We’re starting to see that pattern again. While this isn’t the same as the 2008 housing crash, which was caused by subprime lending, today’s trend is still something to watch.
As mortgage rates begin to drop, we’re starting to see more buyers show interest in the market. Many are looking to take advantage of lower rates and move away from high rent. While it’s still early, this shift could create new momentum in real estate if the trend continues.
If you’re thinking about buying or selling and need guidance, I’m happy to help. You can contact me at (602) 738-9943 or send an email to jason@thepenroseteam.com. I look forward to hearing from you.
