Let me know when lumber prices start decreasing. Housing prices may stall but there won’t be a crash.
Lumber forecasts are down big time. We could see sub $700/1000 board ft by summer.
Bloomberg
That said, while the pace of appreciation may lessen, there is no one who thinks housing prices are going down anywhere anytime soon. We simply have no inventory.

Im shocked Dallas Suburbs arent on there. I dont see any reprieve in sight.
To get into decent housing/school districts you are minimum of 400-500k.
Pretty much eliminates all first-time home buyers without mommy and daddy backing.

I’ve not heard of an abundance of inventory available anywhere in the US, here in middle TN we have less than a month of inventory. By definition a healthy sellers market has less than 6 months inventory and above that would be neutral to a buyers market.
I would hope that in 3 years time we can get to a healthier level

It’s rough out there for buyers. I was in one yesterday I called the sellers agent after to see how many offers there were so I could talk with my clients about how far over list we’d need to be to have a shot.
Told them I never knew so many people had that much cash laying around, as cash offers seem to come in on a lot of the ones I’m involved with, and I show 500 plus a year
So as a youngish person only ~5 years into my career with only about $20k on hand you're saying I'm unilaterally screwed.

I bought my house in 1999 and have since refinanced the orig loan. If I had to buy my house today, it would probably cost at least three times as much, and if I had to rent it, the rent would probably be close to three times my mortgage payment. I honestly don't know how young people today afford to buy a house.

Pretty much, yeah.. i mean you’re competing with hedge funds and huge conglomerates like Blackrock, Fundrise et al who come in and purchase entire neighborhoods and convert to rentals .. so ur $20k and middle class paystub wont go very far.. you’ll either pay much more for much less house, further out from any decent area.. or you’ll rent until the market ‘crashes’, whenever that might be .

Everyone needs to stay the hell out of Utah. It is the WORST state to live in. Not worth visiting here.

Your best bet is new construction, get in on ones that just started and are 6-8 months out on completion.

What’s really going to suck is when we get another rate hike and everyone on the fence tries to get something.
Bad? I don’t think we’ve seen the kind of crazy that’s going to generate. It’s starting now, but will be worse come July IMO

Provo is legit. Lots of sexy chicas there and many are anti Mormon and rock luscious under arm hair, which has become my favourite new fetish. I blame my French great grandfather.

Watched list prices of 700k turn into actual offers of 1.1M. Insanity

That is one of the most ridiculous markets. We looked at moving there last year (from Southlake). It is a beautiful area and great town but our trade off was not with the move.

Pretty happy we bought our house in the triangle 3 years ago. Value has increased substantially

Because 400-500k won’t get you a shitty efficiency in the Bay Area. I get that it’s more expensive than it used to be in DFW, but it’s still far more affordable than a lot of places.

After such news, it begins to seem that the barn will be the best investment.
