It appears the market is reacting to the high interest rates and asking prices. This is the average home price sold in the US. That's a near 10% drop in just 1 quarter. Crazy. I'd personally maybe hold out 1 more year and then sweep up if I were looking now. If I had to guess where it will drop to, I'd hold a pencil or ruler that follows that trendline, and see when it'd cross that on the last quarter downslope extrapolated. The line follows a general trend. It has ups and downs, but seems to always follow that general trendline. I feel there's going to be a significant drop pretty quickly.

The historic price trendline and the recent last quarter downward trendline, intersect around $370k. If it's at $437k today, that's a $67 decrease. This is a 15% drop at current prices. To those that think it's going up still because they own a house and believe it will go up just because they want it to go up. Good luck, but smart investing is always better than wanting something to happen investing.

This is a follow up post to other post that showed how applications to buy houses are at lowest point and leasing is cheaper than buying now. That data on that post ended Oct 2022, so this is just showing 1 quarter later.

I'm sure St. Tammany parish will reappraise my taxable home value to account for the drop in taxes like they did a few years ago in order to raise them.

I’m guessing bidding 10% over list prices ain’t in style anymore?

I love my place but at times i wish I had unloaded all of it in '22 and moved into a dump of an apartment for 2 or 3 years.

We’re still several years away from adequate inventory. Home prices/values more than likely won’t be rising exponentially like they have been doing the past couple of years. More than likely we are going to see a stabilization, if you will, and somewhere around 2-4% appreciation rates, maybe 4-7% in hotter markets.

Dude, I don't think you understand the severity of this. It dropped 9% in 1 quarter. That's -36% extrapolated over 1 year. I don't think it will drop that much, but I'm very confident that it will drop over the next 1 to 2 years to get in trend with the general slope of that line. I predict another -15% drop on current prices until it gets in trend with that line. It definitely won't appreciate until this gets straightened out in like a year or 2.

This is actual data of houses sold, not projections or forecasts like Redfin. Maybe you live in like NYC, California, or a blue state, but if you're in the South outside of Austin, TX, it likely isn't.

Sounds like homeowners are stuck between a rock and a hard place.

I ain’t selling. I can’t sell. I’ve got 30 beehives behind it. I ain’t going through moving and moving beehives. You can kiss my black arse.
