re: Home prices will go down this summer as sellers can't postpone listing any longer

Redfin's website says Austin prices are up YoY.
I don't know what to believe.
Once America’s Hottest Housing Market, Austin Is Running in Reverse Home prices have fallen more than anywhere
quote:
But in Austin, according to the Freddie Mac House Price Index, prices have fallen more than 11% since peaking in 2022, the biggest drop of any metro area in the country. “Austin's housing market remains extremely overvalued,” said Matthew Walsh, an economist at Moody's Analytics.
I'd be concerned if I bought in Houston the past 2-3 years.
I just feel like the houses are/were going for far more than they should. I just don't see how those same homes are going to appreciate even further to benefit the current owners down the road.
Just my feeling of course.

Still short 5 million homes. There isn't enough supply for qualified borrowers who are sitting on sidelines 'waiting' to buy. And friend, if rates do by some miracle go down to 6% or 5.5% you are going to have nothing but a big buyer frenzy clusterfrick at that point and people will be in bidding wars al over again. I'd much rather buy now and get what I want with less competition in a slower market and refinance when appropriate time comes vs entering a market where rates have dropped and you are competing with 20 other people for every home. People are fricking stupid.

People have been saying these prices aren't sustainable!!! since 2018. They have been wrong and have lost out on tons of equity and lower rates.

This is just within Kansas City proper...3 bed/2 bath for $300k or less...aka "starter homes". The number available obviously expands considerably if you move back to a 2/2 and look a bit further out. Plenty of reasonably priced homes.

All of this depends on where you are.
Hot markets are still hot, but in just the 2 or 3 I'm familiar with, it does seem like markets are getting more balanced.

My point entirely. shite, our median home price here continues to rise, just approaching $425,000. But if I wanted to live in Indianapolis, which is a perfectly nice city, I'd have my pick of the litter of homes $300k or less.

Will that profit put you in a better house with prices today though?
Our house is paid off, we both have excellent credit and cash in the bank. We would likely move a little further out once our son is gone and finance a much smaller amount with the plan to pay it off within 5-8 years.

In that scenario and because of the summer months being high buying months, I predict no movement in prices. If anything it’s marginal and doesn’t really matter.

These knuckle draggers are all just coping.
“But could you afford the same home if you sold”. Yes, neck beard, using the 6 figure profit as a down payment.

Is a 1% drop really a thing to write an article about?
Posted on 6/12/24 at 6:41 pm to kywildcatfanone
Yes. People who want to sell aren’t listing yet.

THIS stout “housing market crash” prediction will be correct
Posted on 6/12/24 at 7:00 pm to Hateradedrink
I almost bought a piece of land to build on a month ago. Cost was pretty high and I think building is still quite expensive.
I do wonder though, if 2 years from now home sales value would be high or not

The scum banks just need transactions. They don’t give a crap if prices go up or down. They just need lending and more lending and more lending and more.
