My bad. I saw the headline, and figured this either had to do with retired Rapper M.C. Hammer or Paul Pelosi & The Man from Berkeley.

Weird! New neighborhood going in down the road from us (grrrrr!) with prices from mid 500k to mid 800k. Some have already sold. WTAH?

Wow. Those sound pretty steep. At least to me. Might be good prices for someone else.

Get used to Bidenomics. The senile pedo will get 90 million votes in 2024. Easy to print ballots by the truckloads.

Prices in our neighborhood have not dropped. Houses sell in a week or two. We have an inventory shortage in Atlanta.

Keep in mind, the people that are buying a $500K to $800k house most likely just sold a house for the same or more.

The charts I see on existing home sales are basically flat. No one wants to sell because they is so little inventory in most areas to buy.

However, NEW construction sales were at a 18 month high in September. The amount of new homes available is DOWN 29% from Sept 2022. Meanwhile the sales of new homes is up 34% in comparison to Sept 2022.

Everyone who has been griping about the “ridiculously high” prices for quite a while should be happy.

Most countys do their mass appraisals every two years so there’s a 2-year lag in realizing the next price level, up or down.

County Assessments are not “appraisals”.

This could be a good time to buy if you need a home. Prices are down. Interest rates are up but there’s this thing called refinancing adn the next move is expected to be down for rates. Buy at the current lower price, refinance when rates go down, be happy. Or just get an ARM and watch it go down by itself. When rates start down prices will go up fast because everyone ignores that there is still a large housing shortage in most submarkets.

Most states wont automatically reduce the value related to property taxes. Homeowners need to file a petition to get the value lowered to market.
