Somehow houses in and around Bogalusa sell within 12 hours of going on the market and can turn into a bidding war.

Strange world.

Do you have cash to offer 12% over asking? Because that’s what’s currently happening. That’s insane, where do people make this kind of money?

A bidders war on Bogalusa properties is if a potential purchaser (aka “victim”) makes any offer on one, the seller will go to war rather than have the deal fall through.

The L.A. one is hilarious because they're still in the millions for the smallest POS.

Tulsa? I lived there for 2 years in the early 90s. I thought that it was a great town. Maybe I can get a deal.


Tulsa’ outlying bedroom communities have absolutely exploded with new development over the past 15 years so I’m gonna guess the drop in home prices is just a supply/demand adjustment.

I like Tulsa and OKC.

The Memphis suburbs are very nice too.

Margins on mortgages are getting cucked as well by competition.

I didn't think Detroits could fall much more.

In other cases, it’s not that the same house costs less. Rather, the lower prices are due to fewer larger homes, which generally fetch higher prices, going up for sale. (Metros include the main city and surrounding towns, suburbs, and urban areas.)

Prices are flattening everywhere. A standard 30 year mortgage payment on a $500,000 loan is about $600 more a month than it was a couple of months ago. That’s “real money.”

So of course the market is gonna cool and that’s a good thing. See 2008.

Falling prices therefore say it out loud…falling demand Who would think that no one would want to live in the likes of Memphis or Detroit? Most of these are individuals fleeing state and local government overreach. It is the exact reason that states rights are so important.

Important note from the article:

To ensure geographic diversity, we limited our list to just one metro per state.


There would have been more than one metro in a few of those states if they had just run the data overall. They basically admitted as much.

I’d say some people have that money the rest are businesses that could either make a profit turning around and selling or turn them into rentals.

You don’t need that in cash unless it doesn’t appraise, and most houses appraise.

Then you have to turn around and buy in the exact same market. I tell my wife this every time she gets an idea of how much we could sell our house for right now
