reads like your ex lives in an area where renting voters outnumber property owning voters.

They may already have. This average looking 3bedroom house is for sale for $1,100,000. $1,000 a square foot. Not on the water, no bricks. LINK

Across the street from a commercial building. Must be a joke.

Holy shite I love that area but 1.1 mil for a home there is about 400k too high, especially that one. Ocean Springs is not Charleston

Dont see any price cuts at all

Looks like they are all 600k + listings

If you’re poor in this economy you really messed up. Most people are doing much better than they were pre-Covid. Sorry to hear you are poor.

That’s pretty much everywhere and not a “boomer” issue. Stupid article.

Because you didn't look

If you go to Zillow and look up Palm Springs there are major price cuts on houses once they hit the 60 day point of being on the market

A cut of 20k on a $578k home or $50k on a 1.1 mil home is not 'major'. These are all time high prices even with minuscule cuts.

If everyone would just be patient the boomers will start handing over the keys to the moron second generation most created (if we are speaking statistically) and they will have to sell dad and moms homes in order to pay off their own debt. Prices will come down, just give it some time.

Cherry picking.

There are price cuts on Zillow of 10% and more if you look

There are some on the screenshots I posted that you ignored

That’s an interesting take on inheritance and demographics. There are a significant amount of people born in the 1960’s and 1970’s that are inheriting property and wealth. There was a bit of a middle class boom in those overlapping generations of parents and children.
You seem to think those children now in their 40’s-60’s aren’t in great financial health. What I’m seeing is the opposite as those people are keeping the houses for passive incomes, adding properties to their portfolios, and leaving the workforce earlier than expected.

No. A price cut of 150k on a 1.1 mil home wouldn't be 'major' either. These are all time high prices and valuations. Supply is driving these high prices even in a 'high' interest rate situation. There is very little supply and that isn't changing anytime soon sans massive job losses. The wishcasting continues. Maybe you will be right one day after years of wrong at this point.

^This. While prices rise and fall in different markets dependent upon local forces, nationally prices dipped from 2021-2022 highs, but are still way above 2018-2019 numbers. That’s at least the case for the markets I am in.

20k cuts on already inflated values is kinda meh news

Rates just hit high 5s are par rates. So better buy now like the RE Agents have been saying

We get a bad jobs report and the 10yr might get under 4%
