Predicting a 25% increase in Real Estate prices by 2027 is a bold claim, but it’s not impossible given the housing demand in certain markets. Factors like low inventory, growing urban populations, and rising construction costs could push prices higher, especially in hotspots. However, economic factors like interest rates or policy changes might cool the growth. I’ve noticed on platforms like Rent Cafe how rental prices are also climbing, which often mirrors trends in the home-buying market.

My reasoning: the FED will likely drop interest rates under political pressure and Congress will keep on borrowing money to stimulate the economy. We'll once again get the doubly whammy of inflation plus low interest rates driving demand plus failure to deal with zoning regulations.

Seems like that jump over the last 4 years is a low interest rate phenomenon... though my preferred reasoning for betting this down would be 'Lars will be astoundingly successful in creating popular support for a land value tax in the coming years'
