The real estate market is expected to experience some flatness or changes in the 12 months following April 2025 (i.e., by April 2026).
"I do think we could have a little bit of flatness and market could change up a little bit in the next 12 months, but we just kind of build that into our underwriting."

A nationwide trend of residential housing price declines is predicted to occur for an unspecified duration, starting from April 2025.
"I mean I think that's going to be a nationwide trend for a little bit."
Residential Housing Prices

National real estate prices are likely to remain flat when adjusted for inflation, possibly with slight nominal increases, a trend expected to deter buyers.
"I there is a likely chance that prices are going to be somewhere flat, especially as you compare them to inflation. They might still be up a little bit nominally, but we will see at least on a national trend that I think scares a lot of people away."

Real estate appreciation is predicted to rebound and increase significantly approximately a year from April 2025 (i.e., starting around April 2026).
"But I also think like there's going to be a rebound like a year from now where appreciation really starts to kick up."

Mortgage rates are expected to remain volatile for a few months (from April 2025) before following a downward trajectory, likely in the latter half of 2026 and almost certainly by early 2026, especially if a new Fed chairman is appointed.
"my expectation is that rates are going to stay like a little bit volatile for the next few months, but there will be a downward trajectory at a certain point and I think it probably will hit the later half of next year and I think the beginning of 2026 is almost certain, especially if there's a new Fed chairman that comes in."

Increased buyer demand for renovated homes is anticipated in the spring/first part of the year (around April-May 2026), coinciding with the completion of current flip projects.
"a lot of these are heavier fixers that are going to take me 7 8 months going in where we're going to be coming into that spring, first part of the year when we're wrapping these deals up. And we know if we hit that disposition time, there is a lot more buyer demand."
Real Estate Buyer Demand

Investors who hold their residential properties for the next 5 years (until April 2030) are predicted to achieve significant financial success.
"if you can get through the next 5 years with your properties, I think you're going to look like a genius."
Real Estate Investment Returns
Pending
Investors who hold properties for one to two years (until April 2026 - April 2027) are predicted to achieve significant financial success by selling at a more opportune time.
"if you can sit there for a year or two, then you'll look like a genius, right?"
