Just saw a news story about a family who took out a big home equity loan to renovate their kitchen, but ended up underwater when property values dipped. Kinda scary how quickly things can flip... anyone else seen similar stories or experiences?

Yikes, yeah, that's rough. I remember when my neighbor went all-in on a backyard pool and patio setup right before the market took a nosedive. He joked he had the fanciest underwater property in town... literally. But hey, markets swing back eventually, and at least they got a nice kitchen to cook in while waiting it out. Sometimes you just gotta ride these things out and keep a sense of humor handy.
