On the cottage front, I do not see how any sane annalist would think they will go up medium term if things continue with inflation, interest rates, stock market drop and possible recession. Of course if much of the above all of a sudden reverses all bets are off.
Short term there may be a peak as people sitting on the fence on buying think they need to get in before interest rates peak any higher. We actually also saw this in the housing market the first few months of this year (panic buying of sorts to lock in the rates). Once it all sets in don't expect the same. Boomers retiring may jump the prices short term but then there will also be estate sales etc. in the same context.
Not where I would be investing hoping to make money. Some real estate guys are really pumping it we know that is not for anyone's but theirs benefit.
