If you take out a loan at 12% today well then you’re an imbecile.

Nothing spectacular in the housing market will happen just because you throw money out the window.
I’m talking about housing economics, not like what’s the current loan cost. The current market is what it is today, buy what you have the financial possibility to buy.
But if rates go up wildly, I’m gonna repeat this once again, then housing prices will go Down.
