BEWARE ! FED RATE HIKE COULD BURST BUBBLES KATHY FETTKE

How would a slow down in stocks affect real estate ?

1 . Cities that are more dependent on stock market fluctuations would be more affected by a stock market crash ( SF , NY , Seattle ).
2 . Mortgage interest rates would decline if there were a correction in the stock market as more investors flock to the safety of bonds – which are more tied to the 10 year Treasury bond market .
3 . Commercial real estate would get hammered while landlords could fare well as more people are forced to rent , driving rents up .
Now would be a very good time to “ cash out ” and sell your high priced assets while the market is hot . You can exchange those properties for low­priced , high cash flow properties in recession­proof markets .
