Think about how you “buy” a house and then the rest of the time you own it you rent it from the government but they call it “property tax”
And that funds the prison waiting line they call “schools” and places for homeless people to look at pornography called “libraries” and spaces for drug dealing known as “parks”

I just don’t think prices can go much higher in the near term that what they were at the tail end of 3% rates.
Rates dropping to 6% may bring buyers off the sidelines and stop the modest price decreases, but you are still going to end up with a note much higher than what you could have had in 2021.
Long term I believe residential real estate will appreciate as it has historically. But near term I don’t think we are at a point with housing prices where we see some astronomical rise in list prices if rates drop to 5-6%. That’s still going to be an expensive note at current home prices.

I am increasingly unsure where your trolling ends and your real opinions begin.

Values are up another 8% this year
Will probably be 10% next year and the trend will continue

This was a big factor in my decision to rent my house rather than selling

So far this year, prices have increased by an average of 0.64% per month on a seasonally adjusted basis. If that trend were to continue, year-over-year growth would be at nearly 8% by December.

Well I wouldnt listen to you. If rates drop they will increase by 10% based of the frenzy alone

Such a predictable opinion. I didn’t go out of my way to choose Zillow. I just googled United States home values and that was the first link.
If I wanted to cherry pick data like you I would have posted the articles stating that home values have actually decreased YOY.
I see you have quoted data but failed to post the link to the site you cherry picked from..

If they drop to what? 3%? I agree. 6%? No chance.

Or more. Sheet goods are already going up and any uptick at all will cause dimensional to double.
Copper is getting more and more scarce as a finished product.

But you did. And they are the least credible source
No one should take you serious
We will see what what happens once rates hit high 4s

What’s the bottom line? Home values have hit new all-time highs according to Case-Shiller, FHFA, CoreLogic, Black Knight and Zillow more than recovering from the downturn we saw in the second half of 2022. This year, prices are on pace to appreciate between 5-9% depending on the index, based on the reported pace of appreciation through July. These indexes show that now remains a great opportunity for building wealth through homeownership and appreciation gains.
Case Shiller the gold standard has it closing in on 8%

I’m in the process of getting a divorce and will end up selling our house and buying another place. The loan officer I’m going through said I can get a VA home loan around 6.4-6.5%. It will be another few months until I can do something and hope the interest will be a little lower by that time.

It’s the track builders I’m seeing with inventory that are having inventory stack up. But their builds are definitely inferior quality. I’m not having many contacts right now over 300k atm, hoping that changes as most of the ones looking at that 99k house on the market aren’t remotely prepared to handle the issues that come with it.
Builder here as well. We have a high rental income area. When the rates are down I build alot of nice rentals and they sell immediately. That only works when rates are down and ROI is about 10% or better. Rental game makes no sense if the rates are high you can’t make the numbers work and it pay for itself. My personal rental homes are down this year not terribly but down. My custom homes are booming. When rates hike people are willing to dump money in where they will physically live but not investment properties. People also assume when rates hike that material and labor go down, that’s not the case. Lumber did some, and framing labor some. That’s about it.

Homes have come off the peak around me, they maybe still up YOY a certain percentage I haven't looked at that data closely. But I watch real estate almost weekly and there are quite a few places that have dropped below what other homes have closed for in the neighborhood, building, etc. Some of them substantially 10% or more. Now, if you compare today's prices to early 2022, I wouldn't be surprised if they have are still up a good tick due to avg.
But I'm not sitting here expecting 2024 to be better at this time. There's no signs that things are improving at this point to show price increases, I'm not an expert but at this point I'd expect Q1 and Q2 to continue to be flat or decreased.
The problem I see right now is that there's a lot of people still holding because they don't want to sell to buy something else with higher interest rates. If the market dips that could cause a panic and substantial drops. IDk, I'm not a bear here. But I do think a TON of people bought 2nd homes when the stock market was flat and int rates were super low. Now they are holding their RE but are on the verge of selling.
