How does inflation real estate values?


The relationship between inflation and real estate values is very complex and has generations of economists and analysts have been investigated. Inflation, means obviously a time when wages and prices of goods increase, but is deflation of a period being reduced wages/employment/prices (in conjunction with lack of economic activity). Economic activity, interest rates inflation, and real estate values are closely related, but the relationship is complex and subtle inter plays between all these factors include macroeconomic cycles.

Inflation

Modern economic theory according to some inflation is a good thing, but much inflation is a bad thing. Some inflation is good, as it signals / of economic growth, but too much inflation (i.e. too fast growth) results often leads to speculative asset bubbles such as a housing bubble, the collapse of which can have significant negative economic impact.

Business cycles

Modern economies are cyclical. The reasons for this cyclical nature and the exact nature of economic cycles remain unknown, but economists have learned a lot about the factors that are involved in business cycles and begin to understand the nature of the relationship between them. It is clear that inflation increased results from economic activity in terms of that more activity results in more money into the economy, increasing demand for products and services produced. However, there are fewer people to produce these new products and services so that you, to work that eventually drive the price of the goods or services they have to pay more them.

Interest rates

A further basic principle of modern economic theory is that low interest rates encourage economic activity and create growth (supporting prices) and high interest rates to keep growth. This refers to the availability of capital and the fact that all companies need to grow capital. So interest rates both an indicator used for the current level of economic activity and a tool for Governments, to control economic activity and therefore by proxy inflation as well as. The great recession of 2008-2010 shows that this cut as Governments around the world (including in the United States) to less than 1 percent interest for a long time, to stimulate economic growth. Rising interest rates apply, that a negative discouraged for real estate values as higher borrowing.

Inflation and real estate values

During the historical rule, that real estate is a good asset class, even in times of inflation, this is true only in a relative sense and is again closely related to the economic cycles. Generally, investments in real estate, especially at the beginning of the inflationary cycle will not do. Because the income in connection with real estate (rent, etc.) generally do not increase to increase property values, which usually does not occur until an inflationary cycle has been clearly demonstrated (several months or even a year or longer). It boils down to which reflect in higher values like rising early in an inflationary cycle, but it needs time for this effect 'trickle prices for food, clothing, and that up'. But too much inflation (hyperinflation) too long will wreck an economy through the devaluation of the currency (leads to recession/depression and low real estate prices).
