Oops! Home Prices Didn’t Crash After AllDuring the fourth quarter of last year, many housing experts predicted home prices were going to crash this year. Here are a few of those forecasts:Jeremy Siegel, Russell E. Palmer Professor Emeritus of Finance at the Wharton School of Business:“I expect housing prices fall 10% to 15%, and the housing prices are accelerating on the downside.”Mark Zandi, Chief Economist at Moody’s Analytics: "Buckle in. Assuming rates remain near their current 6.5% and the economy skirts recession, then national house prices will fall almost 10% peak-to-trough. Most of those declines will happen sooner rather than later. And house prices will fall 20% if there is a typical recession.” Goldman Sachs:  “Housing is already cooling in the U.S., according to July data t...

Just yesterday, my friend texted me with the exciting news that her offer was the winning bid in her home state of Oklahoma!  She lives here in Cave Creek, Arizona, but her daughter will be attending school in Oklahoma.  She tasked me with finding an agent to help her.   ActiveRain to the rescue.  Scouring the list of agents in the leaderboard made it easy to find an agent in her desired city.  After contacting the agent, he explained his wife is also a loan officer.  Normally a conflict, he explained that others have given her high marks for her lending and customer service.   Armed with this knowledge, I reached out to my friend.  The connection was made and in 2 days, the house is now under contract.  It's a real charmer and completely remodeled in an excellent area.  Because my frie...
