When people say, "I'm waiting for the market to crash before I buy a home," it's kind of like saying, "I'm waiting for a tsunami to happen before I go to the beach." All along the Pacific Coast, we're under threats of tsunamis, but people still go to the beach every single day, and they enjoy high-quality life along the coast. Well, it's the same thing with, you know, buying a home. People are buying homes every single day, and they're enjoying the, you know, benefits of homeownership. Why? Because they're not sitting there listening to the doomsday-sayers, "Oh my gosh, a tsunami's coming. Oh my gosh, a market crash is coming," and then they get stuck, and they don't do anything. It is very difficult to, you know, predict when a tsunami is coming, and it's just as difficult to predict when a market crash is coming. A market crash occurs when there is an overabundance of supply and very little demand. If you're living in San Diego, you know that's not the case here. We have a very little supply because there's no new construction and a huge demand. When a market crash occurs, it affects all aspects of life. It affects employment, it affects consumer spending, and it causes a recession.

So when a person says, "I'm waiting for the market to crash before I buy a home," what they're really saying is, "I want a good deal." A good deal is very subjective to each individual and family. To know if you're getting a good deal, ask yourself these questions. Am I ready to invest in my future and build wealth? Am I ready to stop paying someone else's mortgage? Do I have a stable income? Do I have savings, and do I have a decent credit score? The most important question you should ask yourself is, do I have a real estate professional in my corner to help lead the way?
