Los Angeles Real Estate Boom or Collapse? How Can We Get Through It?

LApocalypse Now – Los Angeles decays during coronavirus lockdown, omen to slow recovery.

Commercial real estate professionals have been crying for help over the past few weeks. The National Multifamily Housing Council just reported that on-time rent payers just fell from 81% in March to just 69% for April. This is an unprecedented increase in unpaid rent, a economic breakdown of historic proportions. #losangeles #realestate #coronavirus | Blog Video

The crash has just begun, but Fox Business says that real estate boom is just around the corner. Can this be possible? If so, how? #recession

The L.A. Loft Blog has disclosed our analysis and expectations of massive economic downturn, painfully slow real estate collapse with even slower recovery. Astute L.A. Loft Blog readers prepare for the worse while recognizing equivalent opportunities for impressive gains by those who are tuned in to the shifting course of markets.

Most Americans sadly don’t understand economics very well. Money and economies don’t respond well to being neglected or disrespected. Shutting down an economy for a short time shall lead to much worse economic turmoil, for a longer period of time than most expect. It takes much longer to hire than to lay off. Sliding down is much faster and easier than climbing up. The good news is that climbing back up is possible. For some, including many readers of the L.A. Loft Blog, recession opens the window to greater wealth.

Those with diverse wealth positions have already begun to snap up deals. Warren Buffet and the like have already sold some assets near the top of the market to maximize their cash on hand (as the foolish asked “Why does Warren Buffet keep so much cash on hand?”). Next, the Warren Buffetts of the world are already very busy watching, then studying and researching, before finally nabbing huge deals and steals for tremendous profits. The average Joe can do the same, provided he has the same motivation and discipline.

Many will work two or three jobs to find themselves still losing ground, losing their minds and health due to stress and anxiety. That’s especially true for those who don’t come from a background of investment, or who are not motivated to rise up above the modern day chaos of panic and widening class division.

Investors know about the easier way: Cutting expenses to reserve cash, to buy up super deals — this is the primary, simple formula for surviving and thriving a major recession. While real estate is the great American dream and historically proven way to wealth creation, real estate works best when purchased right along side today’s game-changing investments like Bitcoin, old standbys like gold, and recession money-makers like short-selling of bad stocks.

HOW TO STEAL A LOFT

The reason why real estate is now on sale is because few people wish to buy a home today. This lack of demand corresponds to quickly falling home prices. The few who are considering the purchase of a property now find it hard to tour homes for sale, although we’re seeing an increasingly questionable pandemic #filmyourhospital with a much lower-than-predicted infection rate, and much lower-than-reported fatality rate. Buyers should know that Downtown L.A. condo prices have already dropped by more than $35,000 in the last two years.

Crash

REAL ESTATE NEWS

Will the recent stock market crash affect real estate? Yes, and weakening real estate has already affected the stock market. Many are unaware that the Downtown Los Angeles property market has been dropping in price and sales quantity for nearly 2 years now, as have many other local real estate markets across the U.S. American real estate caught the Coronavirus on January 21, 2020.

This week, it seems as though the economy is grinding to a sudden halt. Los Angeles Metro trains are virtually empty. Home buyers are evaporating. The L.A. Loft Blog provides analysis results stating that current real estate transactions have only about a 70% to 80% chance of success. Experienced Los Angeles real estate professionals say that the failure rate could quickly escalate to as much as a 93% chance of cancellation based on their 2008/2009 stock market crash experience, when 100% of transactions fell out of escrow for some Downtown Los Angeles real estate agents.

For the astute of means, such as Warren Buffett, significant market fear communicates that it’s time to get greedy. Jeff Berwick made 811% in profit in the crash. All markets offer opportunities for those who are motivated enough to learn, recognize and act on them. The biggest crashes on Wall Street or Main Street can bring the biggest opportunities for the most shrewd, especially for the cash-rich. They’re able to swoop in on bargain prices to gain all of the margin that the mainstream investors miss. If an economic crash is extra “bad”, it allows more buyers to come in and begin buying homes that they otherwise could not afford.

Many other types of opportunities exist in a crashing market. For renters who are paying high monthly rent, just about any time to buy is better than renting if they are planning on staying a while. Rent is a 100% loss to the renter that pays the landlords mortgage, while owning is almost always gaining equity for the home buyer. #crash #stock #realestate

Crashes and recessions are perfect opportunities to consult with financial advisors, spot inefficiencies, reduce costs, identify upcoming opportunities, reorganize, forge stronger plans, snap up bargains, prepare for new markets and lay the groundwork for bigger and better ventures.

The Alta loft that is the home of the L.A. Loft Blog was planned during a recession, then purchased at the bottom of a recession, helping to provide excellent long-term stability through all kinds of economic cycles. “We invested heavily in unique systems to really help buyers and sellers during challenging times,” says Los Angeles broker Corey Chambers, “That’s how we’re able to provide worried home sellers a guarantee that their home will sell at a price acceptable to them, or we’ll buy their home for cash.” That guarantee is especially helpful for move-up buyers to buy their new home without worrying about selling their current home.

Loft buildings that perform well during crashes and recessions include the Higgins Building, Alta Lofts and the Elleven lofts.
