I think that the chance to buy and secure a home loan is rapidly passing. Once a home loan is locked in, then you know your RENT price. Unless an individual went with an adjustable rate mortgage then they are going to be pretty safe.
Real estate options for right now buy before the inflation run I would think would be in small scale apartment complexes. Once banks start to foreclose on scared home owners those ex-home owners are going to need a place to stay and that means apartments.
In the last housing crash, small apartment owners did pretty well.
The NFT's, and block chain games and toys could be a safe place and a chance to increase ones wealth. I am hoping that my first two NFT purchases will help my Hive wealth, time will tell.
I too have seen a few stories of inflation, but more importantly, I have seen and taken note of it in the grocery store. Right now it is the American Comfort Foods, (junk food), that are increasing the most over $2.00 for a bottle of soda, $2.00 or more for a small bag of potato chips. Candy bar prices increasing, for most Americans this is where things are getting tough, and the price of vegetables is really taking off also.
Inflation has been here for awhile now, people are just now taking note because it is hitting the food basket.
I think so too. Rents are going to increase also, as people who overpaid for investment properties, try to claw back ROI.
For sure. When it hits people's stomachs, the feeling gets real.
