Housing prices are a function of the interest rate and principle.  Just like cars people buy based on what payment they can afford.  Interest rates have been low forever allowing builders to jack up prices which also drives up existing home values.   That bubble is about to pop now that rates are up.  There will be a little bit of lag time, but it's coming. A lot of people are going to be underwater a few hundred thousand or more.  People keep coming up with rationalization and pretending like this hasn't all happened before.

I have watched this debate on here for weeks.  Existing home inventory, new home inventory blah blah blah blah.  The basic facts are this. Millions of people will lose their job if the Fed Reserve follows through with its planned rate hikes and balance sheet reductions.  Inventory will  rise and prices are going to fall from the double whammy of slowed demand and higher mortgage payments.  If the Fed does not do any of the things I outlined, it gets a bit more difficult to predict.

Gas and Food prices throw another wrench into this, people are already hurting because productivity can not keep up with the current rate of inflation.  There are a lot headwinds for the housing market.   Would I short it right now, hell no.

Yet we can’t comprehend the millions of people with locked in mortgage rates at 3% that will just sit in their house and ride out inflation while all the poors fight over a top floor apartment so they don’t gotta hear the knew couple from Juarez fucking every night.

Yeah, the housing market ain’t “crashing”.  No number of charts will change this reality for you.  Quality housing and real estate in a nice area will never depreciate over the long term.  Will it keep climbing like it did last 2 years, no…. But it ain’t crashing.

New home inventory is spiking, existing home inventory will follow that trend. Demand is cooling and quickly.

Apparently understanding that a glut of new single and multi family home supply being built won't have a price impact in six months when they all hit the market and somehow demand is able to absorb it at such a strong pace it'll keep price where it is today.

Who cares.  Unless you’re a real estate investor or a home builder you should be living your life so you can ride out any crash with it just being a minor annoyance.  But we’ve made the average homeowner into a real estate investor because they dedicate so much of their earnings and wealth to their house.  Now it’s fingernail biting time with every hiccup in the markets, and laypeople studying RE markets as if it’s their full time job.  What a joke.  Bring on the crash.

Should break up the portfolios of the companies creating the housing market crises and have a forced sale by date or lose all claim to funds from sale and tax write offs.  Flood the market.  Houses can only be purchased by Americans who own 3 or less properties.

I'm for a free market but the scheme in which they purchased the properties was not free market.  It was not capitalism.  It was financed by devaluing the dollar to print money for the crime.

So because I own a home, a couple acres for hunting and a little townhouse 200 miles away in a city where I have a business, I shouldn't be able to buy property?  And then you talk about the free market in the same post?  I'm not sure you know what capitalism is.

Boomer 401k lol. Sudoku is all they will be able to afford to do. Can't even cover taxes on 8k/year.

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/average-retirement-savings-baby-boomers-125500443.html

According to the Transamerica Center for Retirement Studies, the estimated median retirement savings for Baby Boomer is $202,000. Based on the 4% Rule, this would yield an annual retirement income of $8,000 per year. Depending on your perspective, this portfolio size could be more or less than you expected. Transamerica also found that about 45% of Baby Boomers have saved $250,000 or more. Further, 40% of Boomers agree with the statement that they have not done enough to save for retirement.

Just wait until the boomers to retire from politics. Then we can finally eliminate social security.

I do account for those who have given up.  I mention the labor force participation rate in every unemployment thread I post in.

Part of the drop in the labor force participation rate is people doing side work or working for themselves.  Those jobs do not get counted by the labor force metric.  Every day I run into someone else with a side hustle using Venmo as a payment system.  If they aren't reporting their side work to the state and paying in the unemployment insurance premium then they are not counted as in the labor force.

Unemployment numbers mean nothing when it doesn't account for people not looking for work anymore. It's a false metric that only tracks who got laid off recently. It doesn't tell the whole tale. The labor participation rate is only 62% now.

This is a good chart, because it covers supply and demand at the same time. By any measure, housing inventory is at historic lows. Even if demand drops significantly, it'll still take some years for the supply to catch up.
