Q: Our Market Is in a Good Place, But Will That Last?

What’s the latest news from our real estate market? By my count, we’re into month six of the coronavirus outbreak, and housing markets across the country have bucked the trend of economic markets. It’ll be interesting to see how the layoffs from Disney and other major companies will impact real estate in the coming months, but for now, we’re in a good place. Interest rates are insanely low, and that’s driving affordability. In turn, this affordability is causing significant price increases across the Tucson, San Diego, and Austin markets.
