t’s only fair since the last debate we had about this you said people weren’t paying the rate but paying above it to skert around what the rate actually was.
Wut?
I really feel sorry for you and hope you are actually a bot/troll. The amount of Fake News and outright lies you post on here is off the charts like the lie I just caught you in.

The Fed's sole lever to fight inflation has a lot of side effects. For example, raising interest rates depresses building new homes which tends impact the supply side of housing affordability.

Around 15.8% of U.S. GDP in Q2 2026 (the most recent detailed figures available), based on Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) data as analyzed by the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB).
eyeonhousing.org
This figure combines two main components of how housing enters GDP (expenditure approach):Residential fixed investment (RFI) — new single-family and multifamily construction, remodeling/improvements, manufactured homes, and brokers’ fees: 3.7% of GDP (about $1.2 trillion at a seasonally adjusted annual rate).
Housing services — actual rents paid by tenants + owners’ equivalent (imputed) rent for owner-occupied homes + household utilities: 12.1% of GDP (about $3.9 trillion SAAR).

The stubbornness of sellers is also a major factor. They think their house is worth more than it is, and they don't really have to sell right away so they decide to wait it out. But they will not win. Eventually prices will come down.
The problem is that not everyone has the luxury of waiting. Let's say that in a neighborhood of nice homes, multiple homes are for sale. But you have 2 sellers who really have to sell due to relocation, divorce or whatever. The pressure will eventually get to them, and they will take a lowball offer. Those sales now become the comps. Then later another one drops. And another. The new price points get baked in before the sellers even realize it.

It's interesting that we accept the prices of the vast majority of consumer goods never come down while ridiculing average Americans who expect the same "rule" to apply to their houses.

Rates today are 7.25%. Most sellers I’ve seen are offering cash incentives to buy rates down. It’s also fall when home sales decline. Also rates are cheaper today than a year ago when sales were up so what does that say exactly about the premise?
Do you have statistics to confirm?

A home is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it sellers are learning a brutal lesson right now.
Saw an interesting video last week, agent told the seller her price was too high and got the “I know what I’ve got” response.
Then the agent asked what she would rent the house for, seller said $2,000. But the price to buy would be about $3,500 a month. She asked why would you expect someone to buy your house for $3,500 a month if you think you could only get $2,000 to rent it. Seller finally understood and lowered the price.
Need more sellers to realize this.

Good. Now housing prices will fall and all these losers can stop complaining about houses being unaffordable.
These assholes will whine about "affordability" one week and then whine about falling housing prices the next.

People are so stupid. You buy a home on your monthly payment. When interest goes up, prices come down, and if you are buying, you break even, until interest rates drop again and the price goes up and you make a killing in equity. The cowards out there don’t deserve freedom

Are prices going down?
Everything else costs more, but not a house.
Genius.

Looking at local numbers, there’s an inordinate number of properties lingering on the market in downtown / French qtr nola.
I suspect some of this has to do with the short term rental rules.
Nationwide, There’s another dynamic in play in condo sales with the cost of HOA’s escalating which is causing an affordability issue.

I had to look this up - the average standard model single wide trailer is around 1,000 square feet so it would be larger than SDVCuck's 800 sqft cuckbox condo he lives in
Wow!
