That's 700 basis points.
The first thing to remember is everybody said that every 1% increase in interest rate, prices were supposed to fall 10%.
And that frightened me, right?
I'm a guy with probably $20 million in real estate at the time.
And if you're telling me my real estate is going to fall 20%, 30%, 40%, I don't want to be there.
I saw the GFC.
I didn't want that to happen again.
So, you know, I had to go figure out what actually happened the last time we did that.
Yeah.
So what I found out, this is exactly why I did it.
And this is why I give it away.
I don't charge for it or anything like that because I'm just trying to help people.
That's all I'm trying to do.
So the first thing I found out was all of these experts, and I'll use quotes because they were wrong.
prices did not fall 70% from 1978 to 82.
Interest rates went up 7% and they were supposed to fall.
Now you could argue, hey, okay, they didn't fall 70%.
Maybe they fell 20 or 30.
They didn't fall at all, guys.
They went up.
