Deke's Investment Blog - September 2, 2015

August and early September 2015 saw severe stock market sell off. Investor’s quickly get nervous. Will turbulence in the stock market spill over into real estate? Not likely at this time. Stock volatility reflects global uncertainty, such as China problems, rather than US economic performance. US indictors presently show job growth, growing consumer consumption and gains in the housing market. Investment in income producing real estate offer compelling options. Vacancies are tight as demand exceeds new supply in apartments, retail/commercial and industrial properties. Mortgage interest rates continue to be at very desirable levels.
