Hot Take
Ah, Spring — a time of rebirth for nature and, apparently, real estate listings! According to guru Rick Sharga, we’ll see an explosion in listings that’s more exciting than a New Year’s Eve firework display. But don’t pop the champagne yet, warns Sharga, as an economic boogie monster and the interest rates boogeyman are hiding in the closet.
For those of you who love a good adventure, keep your eyes peeled for emerging markets. They’re like the cool, hipster districts of the real estate world – not mainstream, yet. For those with a penchant for luxury? You might need to ‘paws’ your dreams about securing a mansion next to the Kardashians’. With unstable terrain predicted for the ritzy properties market, maybe it’s time we all embraced the concept of ‘tiny homes’? This spring, we might just see more red in the market than a kid let loose in a paint shop! But as we know, it’s always darkest before the dawn…or spring in this case.
