Buckle Up! Huge Changes Coming to the US Housing Market

Buckle Up! Huge Changes Coming to the US Housing Market

17,041 View

Some huge changes are happening right now in the United States housing market. For example, over the past 17 weeks, there have been fewer homes for sale compared to a year earlier. This is drastically different from the 50-60% year-over-year gains experienced from December 2022 through March 2023. This decrease in housing inventory is mainly due to new listings falling year-over-year for 67 consecutive weeks (i.e. more than a year of declines) and due to the fact that inventory skyrocketed in the second half of 2022. For example, based on my analysis of data from AltosResearch.com, there’s only 74k more homes for sale nationwide compared to the start of this year (i.e. +16% growth YTD) vs. Last year at this time it was up by 274k from the start of the year in 2022 (+94%).

Additionally, even though average 30 year fixed mortgage rates have been at or above 6% since September 2022 and above 7% since late-July 2023 (per the Mortgage News Daily), the US median sold price has increased by 6% year to date (data from Redfin). However, home prices have been decreasing since July which is seasonal. But more importantly, 30 year fixed mortgage rates hit 8% this week and the last time that happened was in August 2000. If these elevated rates sustain this will likely impact homebuyer demand and therefore home sales in October through December. It’s worth noting that the sales pace of existing home sales in September 2023 fell to just under 4M and that’s a 13 year low. November through January will likely be even lower. Stay tuned…

In today’s video, I share my own analysis based on the latest real estate market data from Realtor.com and AltosResearch.com and the impacts that these trends could have on our US housing market in the weeks and months ahead. Enjoy! Subscribe, share and Like!
