The keys to the real estate market during economic uncertainty
The focus has narrowed to one overarching question: Is the U.S. going to have a recession? Growth has slowed and policy uncertainty has intensified. How will macro uncertainty impact real estate?

We explore the implications of higher financing costs, and potential new strategies to capture value and discuss the impact that rising rates are having on the housing market.
