Yes, most time in real estate, we will not tell you the prices can actually go down, but they can.
If you plan on keeping the property purchased for the long term even if it dips a little bit now chances are it will increase.
People who walked away from properties in 2006 2007 and 2008 walked away because they thought they had lost all of their value. Anyone who kept those homes from 2006, 2007 and 2008 was able to see property values, double and triple in 2020.
It’s normal to say markets go up and also come down. With real estate even if it goes down, you can always expect it to come back up.
