I don’t know what is crazier, the prices or demand. I had one neighbor get full asking for their house one hour after listing and sight unseen. Another neighbor had a contract and full cash offer one day after listing. These aren’t cheap houses. We bought in October and our realtor said we could easily get 25% more if we sell today.

Probably not long after the eviction moratorium expires.

Who will then build the new houses to relieve stress of the market?

It's crazy good, if you're looking to get one sold, but hell to find one to buy.

We would like to move, but nothing good last more than a day and people are paying way over list price to get them.

It might could stabilize if employers start allowing work from home hybrids where employees will have to live within the vicinity of an office. A big reason a lot of folks relocated was to move to cheaper cost of living areas while working remotely. Not everyone will stay fully remote post-COVID lockdowns.

With inflation on top of it, I give it about a year before you start to see major foreclosures on these houses folks have paid out of pocket for pre-inspection but have trouble affording the materials to upgrade.

In November you’re going to see a shite load of foreclosures and then the market will flood. Once the foreclosure ban is up it’s game over.

Supply will surpass demand and home prices will fall.

There's a bill floating around Capitol Hill right now suggesting $15k tax credit at closing for anyone that hasn't purchased a home in the last 3 yrs. Given at closing and not just a washed credit on tax returns.

That could potentially spike up demand even that much more if it's passed as law.

This is what someone wrote to me about the housing market.

"If 2s/10 invert, there's actually something to worry about. Its one of the most consistent recession predictors & can take up to 34 months to actually come to fruition. Last time that happened was August 2019, 23 months ago"

That it for what its worth.

I paid 10 over, sight unseen. Couldn’t be happier with the new place.
Best part was house appraised for 5 over our purchase price. After the seller put a new roof on it for one minor inspection flaw.

Renovating previous house now to sell. Going big on the asking. Might as well, someone will pay it. The market is nuts right now.

I don't disagree with you, but let's look at reality. The construction industry, among other industries, is reliant on cheap, immigrant labor in order to meet consumer demand for prices. New housing slowed drastically when lumber went up. Can you imagine the repercussions if labor costs, the #1 cost, went up by 50%?
