IMHO...

It's going to take a large round of layoffs to really kick off an appreciable decline in prices. As stated by others, so many people are going to stay put because of the great rates they got the past few years. It won't be until they can't even afford those rates that things will collapse.

Interest rates are still historically very reasonable. People are just used to borrowing money for almost free.

People having trouble paying their house notes may be defaulting because they can`t sell for what they owe on it. If unemployment increases like they want to help control inflation, we could also have a problem there with defaulting on loans. Would hate to see another 2008 Lehman Brothers moment.

My parents paid 9% interest on their house and didn’t complain. Maybe people are spoiled.

I was interested in moving but I’m at 2.75 percent. Just doesn’t make sense now

I get the "rates are still historically low" comments because historically they are. One thing that always fails to get mentioned though is how homes in that period weren't selling for $300k+. 7% on $60k and 7% on $300k are night and day. Of course the sub 4% rates didn't help with the conditioning as home prices increased over time. Personally I'm hoping to just she 5% again soon.

Home prices in DFW are being cut fairly sizably, but they still have a LONG way to go before they become reasonable (as they have doubled over the last 10 years or so).

This will be alot of people. The only issue is what happens to the people that locked in great rates but overspent on their home purchase? Will be a tough pill to swallow for some watching their home purchase fall further and further under water.
Alot of people got lucky including myself i bought my house right after the housing crash little after 2008 .So got a great price and like many others refinanced because of the great rates offered a few years back. Dont plan on moving anytime soon.

Needed a reset. Of course when you have the largest increase you’ll have the largest decline. Nothing wrong with a sales decrease as long as we don’t have crazy defaults on loans like 08. Which I don’t see happening.
