Because of the demographic bubble that the country is going through right now.
The boomers are getting old, but they are not selling their houses. The next largest cohort are the “millenials” who are deep into building their families and they are hitting their peak earning years. So they are buying up the larger homes.
In a few years (and not many 5-7) the boomers will be dying in significant numbers. This is going to free up homes (and assets) which will flow down to their kids. But those kids already have their “grown up homes.” So, the market is going to have an influx of homes flowing into the marketplace.
By 2030, between the boomers dying off AND new homes being rushed into the marketplace now….there is likely to be glut in housing and the prices will come screaming down.
In short, the largest two cohorts of population are moving through the demographic markets right now. That is unusual. It will correct…but its going to take a few years to happen.

Great post.
A post that should be read by many, but probably won’t.
Thanks.
Fact is Trump had better start doling out some really,really fat Taxpayer Assistance checks or the GOP is DOA as lots of People are really struggling and no relief in sight.
Um after redistricting and the current senate map the chances of the democrats retaking either chamber of Congress are as good as yours are
So you are going to be “shocked” when the GOP loses the mid-terms?
Don’t be.
Trump is racing against the clock economically. I don’t think he thought he would get the judicial pushback on the tarirffs.
But...we have a Department of War. So that should get all of us a little hard.
Shaking my head.
Not really. The birth rate is 1.62 per woman. So the population is crashing.
The real estate market is doing well in coastal states and the Sun Belt. If you go elsewhere, 📉.
Na doesn’t do much for me, just symbolism and no substance as much of what he has been doing as late. I provide food for the needy and donate a good bit and I delivered 200 dozen eggs and this lady came up and asked me if she could have 2 dozen as she worked a piss ant job at Dollar General making nothing as her Husband is in prison and she is trying to support 2 kids (I gave her 4 dozen). Even for me things have gotten harder all all we get from the GOP is hot air. I want to see the Federal Gov to help the people.....
You must not be reading the news that AI is starting to take jobs away at an increasing pace.
Especially Canadian businesses. Those folks are in a tough spot.Agreeing on a common language might be a good start.
Curious here. Are you in an area people up and left over the past 5 years? I’m in Montana where people descended like crazy during that time. The company I work for job postings are crazy with the number of applicants.
I wonder if it’s because they banked on remote work and that is drying up so they are trying to find anything they can that has a wage that is comparable to their last. My company pays very well, and compared to our area that has no industry besides tourism and old people retiring, it’s well above local market average.
get a woody reading that bullshit?
you are full of crap
When are these employers going to jail? Nothing ever happens.
Women in the workplace, instead of being homemaker. 📖

The earlier you begin to pull up out of a dive, the more likely it is to be successful. If Trump knows everything and is playing 3-D chess with the rest of us, shouldn’t he have a plan to reverse this trend that doesn’t involve just firing the accountant again.
Mommy, women in the workplace
Good catch! This thread should be corrected or pulled!
“Mommy, women in the workplace”
