there was a slow down in Charlotte, there will be a slow down here on the next recession. Charlotte wasn't hit as hard as other parts of the country during the recession but it was affected

We are banking city with banks making insane financial profits.  If we have a recession, it will be barely noticeable if at all.

Big cat is correct here.  It is definately coming.  I dont care much to start a debate but I work at a bank and it is not going nearly as well as you think, especially in terms of US jobs.. The apartment swell going on right now is an indicator of where things are heading.  Its too complicated to go into here but things will get worse housing/ mortgage wise.  Honestly people better get used to having less instead of more each yr.  Thats where its going.. Honestly its already here, I know everyone is spending crazy money for just groceries.  It will get worse without question.

Lol...  We must be working at different banks...  The apartment swell is actually projected to slow as confidence in economy grows and more millennials looking to buy a house.  One fact you fail to take in consideration...  the rent is almost as high as mortgage but with mortgage you get equity and with rent it's 100% expense.

there's going to be a recession in the next 12-16 months, I would not start a career in that right now.

 

New car sales is a good indicator on the first cracks in the economy and almost all manufacturers are sitting on a lot of unsold new inventory

If true, this is good to know. I sold my house for cash last week within hours of it going up for sale and for the full asking price even though I was willing to give an allowance for a new roof and central heating /air. Had multiple offers on the first day. Was wondering if we asked too little or the market was just that hot right now. Oddly enough, my realtor was a Huddler member although I don't she posts here much anymore (or at all).

I unfortunately bought it right at the peak of the housing market back in 2008 right before the crash. Good to know I sold it at the right time if it might happen again.

Smarter to get in while in the middle of a slump rather than a boom market.

She is in sales already, selling something that almost no one buys when the market is down.
