There are a few things you should know if you plan on getting into the housing market from any side.
First, the market can be very volatile and rise or dip sometimes within a couple months time. What this means is that if you have a high investment stake in a house, and you go through with it, the market could suddenly dip you and will be out a lot of money. The good thing however is that you will be able to see housing trends in time, and use the insight to your advantage to predict when is a good time to buy, sell, or rent.
Secondly, it is important to not only keep up with market trends, but social trends as well. What we mean by this is, what kind of styles are people looking for nowadays? Are old styles coming back? What do people want to be included when they purchase or rent? These are all things we will cover in our posts.
