People with high paying tech salaries are one layoff away from being in a terrible financial situation and what if one parent wants to stay home with the kids Just because a lender approves you that doesn't mean it's a good idea.  

And while some are exploring HELOCs as a precaution, many are trying to “ride it out,” not realizing how quickly one unexpected event—a roof, a layoff, a medical bill—can throw everything off balance.The emotional weight of financial stress is real, and unfortunately, many wait until they’re in crisis to ask for help.

The fed's cut will be too late and they will be playing catch up, as defaults and Job Layoffs continue to mount. 

Quite a wild ride the last few years.Im not surprised about Sacramento, lots of super commuters go to Bay area, there's been quite a few layoffs in tech.

I have a small amount in Robinhood - what I consider my play money but I'm no longer buying in that account. 

Buyers are starting to slow down purchases due to mass layoffs and other economic issues.

The problem could be a slowdown in the economy, layoffs in your field of work or shortages in their reserves.

With layoffs dramatically increasing, behavior is also changing rapidly where tenants out of desperation may damage property or commit other harmful acts which begs the question of how to screen tenants for destructive behavior?

Specifically, I want to know:1) how strong is the resale market2) how strong is the rental market (I know a couple companies just announced layoffs)3) I know that a POS inspection is required but not sure if anybody has had experience with the local housing authorityAny other info is greatly appreciated!

And that you can't become an overnight millionaire with 5k on RobinHood, while Wall Street professionals struggle to consistently achieve 7% per year.But somehow the internet myth of real estate wealth from nothing survives...
