THE HOUSING MARKET:
First, HOME SALES.
Year-Over-Year, home sales are down nearly 20%…marking the seventh straight month of declines….and, in terms of WHY, their chief economist noted that “The softness in home sales reflects this year’s escalating mortgage rates” – which, as of a few days ago – have begun to approach 7%.
Second, MONTHS SUPPLY OF INVENTORY.
If you’re in the market for a BRAND NEW CONSTRUCTION…supply has ballooned from 3.5 months at the start of the pandemic…to now, 8.1 months of supply…suggesting that, if you’re a buyer – you’ll have a LOT more leverage than you did in the past.
Third, HOME PRICES.
Even though homes are MORE EXPENSIVE today than they were a YEAR AGO…most of that growth was attained within the first few months of 2022…and, for the last 90 days…home prices have been falling. Nationwide, median prices are currently sitting at “$389,000…DOWN from the peak of $413,000 that was recorded in June.”
Even the Chief Economist for Realtor.com said that, “For homeowners planning to list, today’s market is significantly different than the one from even 3 weeks ago”….meaning, we won’t know the true effects of today – until November.
When it comes to this, The Vice President Of BlackNight Research said that “It would take some combination of a 40% rise in incomes, roughly a 3-percentage-point decline in 30-year rates – or a 30% pullback in home prices” to normalize the housing market.
Now, SOME markets could be hit worse than others – including speculative cities which saw the biggest pandemic price INCREASE, and – the high end luxury market which has already fallen 5% in the last 3 months…but, other markets may continue to increase in price….so, we’ll have to take a wait-and-see approach.
