There is an overall surge of inventory.






Seems like the inventory issue is working itself out but that's because no one is buying

Mortgage applications are at their lowest levels since 1995






The result is home prices are declining in several areas








There's also this nugget









States with a higher number than average of homes owned and occupied by over 65-year-olds:

Maine
Vermont
New Hampshire
West Virginia
Illinois
Florida
New York



If we can keep hedge funds from buying everything up, there may be hope to solve the SFH shortage

NOLA has always been overpriced, even when I lived in the Garden District

65 isn’t that old. I don’t want to wait 20 years to see Florida home prices plummet and buy a home there.

You should look up home prices inthe Asheville area. It is wild out here, and then look at the cost to build, even wilder.

2008 was decades in the making. Not like it happened overnight.

Two completely different scenarios/markets

A lot of the folks that aren’t downsizing are going to have a hard time stepping up to the next level without a massive increase. Even with the inflated equity, jumping up 100-150k in price is a wash. It’s not even worth it in most cases

If I bought a median priced home in my area, my monthly payment will be over $3,000 a month with a typical downpayment. 3 years ago, at that same price, that monthly payment would be like $1,250 less.

This will be us in a few years without something changing. We'd like to downsize in a few years when all of the kids are out of the house, but right now it would mean an increase in our mortgage for a smaller house, even putting 50+% down.

If boomers are going to be selling homes, where will they live?

There’s lots of things wrong with LA, but you leaving has been a bright spot for all of us.

Believe me, we’re better off.

We've got a few years yet but totally prepared to move into a single-wide as long as I have a full-sized garage.

They are slightly but not as much as they should be IMO.

High rates, high inventory, they should be plummeting.
