NYC and SF are seller's markets? Interesting. Doesn't seem logical.

It's not an anyone's market because no one can afford to buy and sellers can't sell

Seriously? Abandoned and cheap. Must provide your own security, though.


There’s some of this, but a big part of it is coming off a huge price bubble from 5-15 years ago. Many of the houses are still overpriced.

Must have been one that down voted you. Your comment is exactly right. I'm in Southlake and houses are going for >$1M without much issue. Even builds from the 90s maybe stay open for a month.

Right across 114 though there are a few neighborhoods that are 100% Indian and growing. Concerned about the next 10 years

You are right about dots, every time I walk through the neighborhood it’s all you see.

Californians have been pouring into Idaho for years. Idahoans hate the newcomers. Those who move there from Cali switch their lic plates real quick.

Article is confusing. Buyers market usually means there are cheap deals due to lack of demand or surplus of product while sellers market means you get top dollar due to supply shortage or high demand

OP implies it means sellers market= more people selling while buyers market means more people buying

Not the Cali transplants moving to Atlanta. I've yet to meet a California migrant who wasn't a militant left wing retard.

Do know what it means to be the top of the buyers market? It isn't good. It means people are selling to escape something.

Map is clear on some aspects..

hurricanes ( insurance in general )… and hoa laws applied to older condos in Florida and their underfunded monies for disasters like foundation.. water movements..

And of course the classic crime and such..I think the short term rentals stuff is causing movement also.

Or, (1) there are lots of boomers retired or retiring that are downsizing, or deceased.

(2) the area lagged behind the rise in valuations seen in other areas. For example: DFW prices only climbed about 10% between 2000 and 2010 while home prices had skyrocketed in Florida and California. It was a buyer's market for a while simply because developers were building so many new developments that the it kept the prices depressed.

"Buyers' market" and "sellers' market" refer to the market imbalance, not raw numbers of who's moving where.

Buyers' market in the southern states indicates oversupply relative to demand, giving buyers the upper hand.

Sellers' market in northeast/blue states indicates undersupply relative to demand, giving sellers the upper hand.

Furthermore, it's not solely driven by the demand side. A buyers' market doesn't necessarily mean anyone's fleeing. Demand could be level/flat and the supply side could be what's elevated.

Supply...demand. Sometimes supply AND demand. Sometimes supply OR demand.

Basic economics.

Some of it is Boomers tapping out. 1961 was a huge population birth year for Boomers. They'll be 65 next year. 1957-63 birth years are ripe for leaving the NE where you get to shovel snow for months.

Yeah, article is definitely not wrong, Nola market is slow. A lot of that is property insurance. And sellers can't process that they can't get what they could have gotten 5 years ago.

At this point it's nothing to worry about since you know the outcome...just getting worse.

This wasn't organic, but deliberately done, while people worried about other demographics being brought in.

Unfortunately, this Admin won't doing about it, and Vance won't do anything about it either when he gets voted in for 8 yrs.

The America our ancestors built for us is on its last leg, because no one will stop the bleeding.
