The great reset is inching closer.

I saw this in the thread about it the other day.

This has more to do with interest rates than home price.

Yes, except for the part of their portfolio where they paid a premium for real estate the last few years. They are going to have to sit on that portfolio for good while, unless they want to take a major haircut.

Doesn't make it any less shocking for a first time home buyer

True, but its not like interest rates now are high.
They are historically normal.

Nope. It may look like a haircut for tax purposes but this all helps with the push towards these types of companies owning everything.
It must have been annoying for them to get into bidding wards with regular goys for properties due to low interest rates and disposable incomes. That's getting addressed.

but some areas (like middle tn) have gotten out of control on home prices too

The interest rate in 2020 averaged 3.11% - on an average $240k house that is: $1026.00
Today, at 8.4% that is $1829.00
So, an additional $803 a month. Add 30% to that to cover income taxes, and you have a total additional income needed of about $1050.
At twelve months, that's an additional $12,600.
But, the median price, as an example, in DFW, went up $90,000. At 8.4%, that's an additional $686.00 a month, plus tack on 30% for taxes and you have $891.00, which is $10,962.
So $10,962 + $12,600 = $23,562 more of your income is required every year now for the same home.
So how do they get from a needed income of $49,680 to $107,000 when you only needed to add $23,562, which is $73,242 annually.

You need to consider debt to income ratio, not just additional income needed.

Homes are about 30% higher to build than pre Covid.

Institutional investors are probably the most fricked, actually.
