Very small sample, anecdotal experience.. but my house in Lakeview that we sold a few years ago is again on the market by the people we sold to.. i check the listing every once in a while for shiggles, and ive noticed that it has been on the market now for over a year.. in that year-plus, they have lowered the asking price 4 or 5 times.. if there is a god, then i thank him/her profusely for letting us sell that house when we did .

I went to some open houses in NO today. I was the only one who went. shite is slow ….. but if priced right I am seeing some things sell relatively quick.

Tell me where this would be, not in TX, not on the Northshore in LA, not on the MS coast or in Denver and surrounding areas.

Is it priced higher or lower since you sold?

Higher.. Unrealistically so, IMO.. and I think they are realizing that .

We call everything a recession now. This will be far worse. I saw this coming. It will kick in and become very apparent at the end of the year to the first quarter 2024.

High interest rates and high inflation along with stagnant wages have finally done us in.

High unemployment comes next.

People said this last year coming into 2023. I don't doubt that the numbers are bad, I just haven't seen anything major happen besides inflation and I hear "experts" swing from "it's about to collapse" to "the economy is resilient and adding jobs and soft landing, etc.".

Thanks for the updates on the Housing market Stout. Not many of us in the industry on here and i like seeing what's the lastest.

ah so big cities still have ridiculous prices while everywhere else is contracting


At least this makes sense with people moving to big cities and them looking for housing. Dont really understand why rural/country locations out in the middle of no where are asking 350k for a 2000 sqft home.

House prices still rising (lowest supply since 70s).

Prices are being reduced but median days on market (45) still historically low (those buying still buying high).

Longer the window of high prices lasts (more locked in high), the higher the normalized price will stay (only coming down after a crazy supply boom..which is a long ways away).

Multifamily is replacing majority of starter homes. Better ROI and driven by change in demographic fundamentals. Rental houses will have to compete with new apartments.

They start again next month after 3 years of being paused. Going to be rough for a lot of people.


But in a way it is a made up problem. If they hadn’t paused them, people would have adjusted.

Now they’ve had 3 years living like the had a higher income and will have a shitty time getting back to where they should have been all along.

Mortgage applications up 5.4% last week I think.
There is still a housing deficit for growing parts of the country.
Blue states and Mississippi/Louisiana where population is contracting this is a problem.
States that are growing are still at a housing deficit.

If the internet is reliable WFH people will pay it. That is absolutely the case in our area. Hybrid commuters will purchase further out as well.

Down 5% from a plus 20% year is not the same as the minus 5% years on the chart. If the two year average is still plus 15, that is hardly recession food.

The rocket rise in prices was due primarily to one thing… Covid.

Things were bound to come down to earth, in fact the fed has been doing all it can to ensure that it does, but that doesn’t mean recession although many people seem to be openly cheering for that.
