Looks to me like the free market is working.

My urban area has still been in a 20-40% fake markup since covid. Maybe this will change.

I wish they’d make up their minds. Housing prices UP, housing prices DOWN, etc.

It's called GRIDLOCK.

1st time Buyer pools are evaporated because of illegal immigrants afraid of deportation. The "move-up" market is stalled

“soaring mortgage rates and economic uncertainty” ... they forgot to include “climate change” in their lie about the supposed “causes” of the housing “crash” ...

Don’t worry, not this: “Home prices are falling in half”

Wait until rates go down. The prices of homes will sky up a bunch.

I just checked. Mine is down a bit this month. But overall it’s up a bunch in the past two years. Up like 20%.

So house prices are dropping. And grocery prices are through-the-roof OUTRAGEOUS!! WTF anyhow?

Something suspicious is going on behind the scenes. With lower gas prices this makes no sense at all.

WINNING!
Get rid of the illegal alien criminals/gangsters from South/Central America and plenty of room and empty houses are created.
As the prices fall further, maybe young people can afford to buy their own homes instead of squatting with parents.

All these millionaires living in gigantic houses on the seacoast should be selling for a fraction of their purchase price so they can move inland when, not if, the seas rise and wash their homes away.

So- there’s panic when housing prices are to high and panic when they are falling

I dumped my apartment because the bloodsucking companies running the complex demanding 15%-20% rent increases YOY. Screw them! Its a total racket. I got a house for less than I was paying for rent. Decatur, Alabama.

Tampa prices are down 6.2 percent, Austin 6 percent, Miami 4.6 percent, Orlando 4.3 percent and Dallas 3.9 percent, according to Zillow.

This is "tumbling," after rises of 50% in the last 3 years?

If so, then good, this is what needs to happen when people can't afford the prices where they are now. Now if someone can make private equity firms STOP purchasing homes and turniing them into rentals, we'd be in even better shape.

Blackrock anyone?

Is housing more affordable? Isn’t that a good thing?

Are they being dramatic to make Trump look bad?
