Got a question. Are loans taken out by businesses like Dick's Sporting Goods, WalMart, Kohls's, Macy's, McDonald's..... or in general businesses/corporations fixed rates loans (like mortgages) or do they adjust as the rate of interest increases?

Great point. You have zero clue of market dynamics. You go into arguing about arguing. I'm not wasting time today, but I'll show you plenty of markets where prices are rising for the foreseeable future. Your perspective is jaded, likely because you're in CA. That's fine. The CA market will likely eat shit. Much of the mountain West will too. Austin, Nashville, NYC are all shit places to be currently.
I'm not a bull. You're being intentionally obtuse. Why would I give a shit if the Bay area drops 20-30%? I don't. No one does unless you own there. All the layoffs, they just move to lower COLA's and have cheaper houses, albeit likely lower pay. You're focused on interest rates. This is not a housing crash BESIDES cities. It brings down the national median for over priced condos and shitty houses. I literally don't know how this isn't understood.
You give no counter argument about how I'm wrong, you just argue that I'm arguing wrong. Come at me with actual data that fly over country is eating shit like CA? It's not and you know it.

Amazon is closing its physical stores in San Francisco. Amazon also halted construction of its headquarters building in northern Virginia. Big tech is cutting back expenses.
Note the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank's stock price.
Tomorrow the weekly job report is to be released. Also 14 March 2023 is the release of the February 2023 inflation or CPI report.
Will be interesting to see as I am noticing price drops not only for apartments such as 1 month free for 13 month lease (and rental prices have remained constant for last 12 months), but also I notice a lot of sales such as Tucktec is offering major discounts with its kayaks right before spring season.

I tend to agree, but when you've done it professionally for 15 years and made a good living off it I think my analysis of things is better than clickbait real estate articles. Or no rebuttal as to why I'm wrong. I explain why prices are dropping in CERTAIN areas and I've heard of no explanation about my logic being WRONG. Just character attacks.
Taking one region, CA and extrapolating that across the country makes no sense. I was a real estate broker before and during the last bust. It's like telling someone getting shot at in Afghanistan/Iraq that they have no clue about war for example. Sorry it's frustrating and devolves into Iwog type argument style of covering tracks and not having a thought.
CA is having an exodus of people. So are cities because of policy and crime. 1year of high interest rates on qualified borrows does not result in a housing crash. The national median goes down if 200k people move out of CA to a substantially lower COLA. That doesn't mean Nebraska, Wisconsin, Iowa are declining. In many cases they're still going up. But the price drops in CA seem dire and drag down the national median housing price.
95% of buyers are locked in at rates under 5% or are completely paid off. They're not moving into new or existing houses because of the high interest rates. That means low inventory and less to choose from so people will pay more where there's less inventory. CA is going to get bashed for sure. But this isn't a housing bust for the majority that are fine staying put.
This is my frustration on this thread. No counter argument has been presented at all. It's because it's logical and what is literally happening in the real world. Nah, all you get is high interest rates = a housing bust.... That's not an answer or argument. Just start a thread on the CA housing bust, because it's simply not happening everywhere.

That's the OP thread title. Nothing to do with California.
Selling a house in California does not mean the thread is based on California, just a link. Just someone making a prediction and sold a home in California. Ad is from the panhandle of FL. I'm from IL. I could predict a housing collapse and say I sold my house in the Panhandle of FL for example, yet I'm in IL.
It was never a CA housing thread. It was housing prices are peaking thread, that then got dragged into the California mud because this is a California centric site. I'm not wrong in anything I state. This is becoming a joke at this point. I even addressed the California market with logical and valid thoughts. I'm not sure the pushback. I've said multiple times I'm not a bull. Projecting what is going on in CA though to the rest of the country as has been done isn't logical and isn't happening. High interest rates only lower inventory as most people since 2010 are locked into sub 5% rates and/or paid off and are qualified to carry the debt. Prove me wrong. I've asked multiple times and no one has answered.

We can at least agree California is a white liberal shithole state. Its an anomaly just like its uppity governor Birdbrain Newsom.
It is more volatile and extreme in California given the economic conditions such as salaries within the San Fran Bay Area and how deep-pocketed white liberals will sell there and move to cheaper states like Idaho, Arizona, Nevada, and Texas (and hopefully not the Florida panhandle).
When I saw Patrick on 20/20 television show about 15 years ago, he did not state he was commenting only on California real estate.
Patrick's book about debt equals slavery is not only about California, alias Mexifornia.

Seller Entitlement Syndrome
It usually goes like this:
Seller hires agent
Seller doesn't list at suggested sales price and wants it listed 50k-100k over market and will not negotiate backwards from the crazy high number. Seller cites 1 irrelevant comp as the basis for the high price and ignores all other market data and market factors.
No buyer action on grossly overpriced listing
Seller blames agent for lack of interest
Seller won't lower the price enough to attract a buyer ($1-$1000 price reduction on a 750k house that is actually worth 625k)
Agent does as they're told and just keeps the price where it is
Listing goes stale and showings are nonexistent
Seller cancels the listing and fires agent for not getting the job done
Seller hires new agent and re-lists at an almost identical bad price as before
Cycle starts fresh and seller blames everyone else for why their house won't sell

Yup. That's generally how it works. Only desperate agents take those listing and hold open houses to get buyer leads. The drawback is in a neighborhood with tight community, you'll get a reputation as not being able to sell houses. It's a risky strategy. Opening doors for buyers to show them a house is agony. While the listing agent is sitting at home with a beer. Listing are gold if you can get the seller to price it reasonably.

I highly recommend raising your kids without knowledge of how rich you are. Leave it to them when you're dead UNLESS they have shown personal traits you approve of. If I gave money to my kids, it would only be after they have already proven to be self sufficient and have no addictions. At that point, I'd have no problems giving them the money.
