This might be the weirdest U.S. housing market in my lifetime…and I’m including the 2008 housing crash in that.
In October, existing-home sales fell for the ninth consecutive month, the longest losing streak since the National Association of Realtors began tracking this data in 1999. This is in large part due to high mortgage rates.
Yet, at the same time, housing supply remains extremely low in America.
This means we’re seeing wildly different projections on where the real estate market goes from here. On the one hand, consulting firm KPMG see housing prices dropping by 20% next year, while the National Association of Realtors forecasts prices will rise slightly, by 1% to 2%.
So earlier today, I sat down with Field Notes Managing Editor Ciaran Madden to discuss what’s happening in the U.S. real estate market and where I see the market going in 2023.
