no, whats gonna happen is a bunch of people will foreclose and sell out to big landlords and then no one will be able to buy a house, forcing everyone to rent
its already happening. most major cities in america 50%+ of livable properties are owned by landlords
also take a look at this neat graph. did you know that our population has grown over the past decade?
its possible you might see houses drop ~40k in value on average, that's what happened last time but ultimately if youre taking a loan out based on ~360k youre looking at 2k monthly payments still (5.29% interest rate is pretty typical right now). of course you also have to qualify for the loan but thats a different beast altogether
there are some pretty cheap houses and ive looked in basically every city and anything below 300k basically looks like a slumhouse and they expect you to fix it up which will obviously mean youre gonna need quite a bit of cash to fix it up and that will get thrown into your loan amount. if youre lucky you can find new construction.... but that shit sells like hot cakes and its very rare. but with new construction youre more likely to get a no hassle good deal and they usually come with warranties
and of course if housing prices drop you gotta be READY to hop on it like a fly on shit because those landlords will already be in motion. out of my own curiosity i look at new construction a lot and around half of it gets bought up by landlords before anyone can grab anything. like one week its there next week it isnt. these days the market is so insane that i see listings getting taken down by the day

Oof. Thanks for the explanation! Was kinda hoping the boot might lift for a bit.
