Sedona real estate and the economy

Like many parts of the country, Sedona real estate has seen some slowing. And, according to Inman News, such a housing downcycle is usually coupled with recession. And a five year mortgage rate freeze on subprime loans is unlikely to stop it. So, even if Sedona luxury real estate escapes the worst of the housing downcycle, a recession may still affect Sedona homeowners.

There are, however, some things you can do now, before the recession really hits, to prepare yourself. Tips to help you through a recession:

1. Get out of consumer debt. Or pay it down as much as you can.
2. Emergency fund. Set money aside for a rainy day.
3. Look into blue-chips. You can re-allocate your investment portfolios (including retirement) so that you have a larger portion of solid investments.
4. Seek advice. A session with a financial planner won’t go amiss. Just make sure s/he is fee-based, not commission-based.
