More than $330 billion worth of listings have been sitting on the market for 60 days or longer. Rising inventory and slow homebuying demand is pushing up the total dollar amount of home listings, and will push down home-sale prices by the end of the year.

      I will say, in my area I’m seeing so many homes with $20,000+ price cuts. Homes that have been on the market for months are now almost $100k lower than they were originally listed for.

      There’s a ton of sales, but the average listing last year was $470k and that’s now down to $370k

      The tract homes are staying high, because they were budgeted at that selling price, but homes just being sold are selling at much more reasonable prices and I don’t know how long DR Horton can hold on…

          Oh agree, most of the $370k ones are still like 2 beds and 1500sqft. But it’s going that direction at least.

            Yeah… we saw a house that was $1.4 million and had the washer/dryer in the garage but wasn’t plumbed. And there was no way to get into the garage from the house, you had to walk outside, go around the front and open the actual garage door to get in. $1.4 million and you can’t even do your own laundry. And worse… someone is buying it… sale is now pending.

      Housing prices crashing don’t cause rent prices to lower that much

      Look at the two history trend lines

        Crash so bad its cheaper to buy a house than rent. Take the indexes. Take the economy. Make it cheaper to buy a house than a loaf of bread.

    Me and wife have been looking for five years now. And by looking I mean we’ve been slowly burning through the savings that were supposed to be a down-payment, waiting for the housing market to crash. I don’t think it’s going to happen.

      At this moment this entire capitalist thing sounds like Beavis & Butthead dialogue:

      “Hey, Beavis, do you remember how we grifted on housing so hard we crashed half of world economy?”

      “Yeah”

      “Let’s do it again”

Welcome to c/news! We aim to foster a book-club type environment for discussion and critical analysis of the news. Our policy objectives are:

  • To learn about and discuss meaningful news, analysis and perspectives from around the world, with a focus on news outside the Anglosphere and beyond what is normally seen in corporate media (e.g. anti-imperialist, anti-Zionist, Marxist, Indigenous, LGBTQ, people of colour).

  • To encourage community members to contribute commentary and for others to thoughtfully engage with this material.

  • To support healthy and good faith discussion as comrades, sharpening our analytical skills and helping one another better understand geopolitics.

We ask community members to appreciate the uncertainty inherent in critical analysis of current events, the need to constantly learn, and take part in the community with humility. None of us are the One True Leftist, not even you, the reader.

Newcomm and Newsmega Rules:

The Hexbear Code of Conduct and Terms of Service apply here.

  1. Link titles: Please use informative link titles. Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.

  2. Content warnings: Posts on the newscomm and top-level replies on the newsmega should use content warnings appropriately. Please be thoughtful about wording and triggers when describing awful things in post titles.

  3. Fake news: No fake news posts ever, including April 1st. Deliberate fake news posting is a bannable offense. If you mistakenly post fake news the mod team may ask you to delete/modify the post or we may delete it ourselves.

  4. Link sources: All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include the Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance) or at least strip out identifier information from the twitter link. There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source.

  5. Archive sites: We highly encourage use of non-paywalled archive sites (i.e. archive.is, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org) so that links are widely accessible to the community and so that reactionary sources don’t derive data/ad revenue from Hexbear users. If you see a link without an archive link, please archive it yourself and add it to the thread, ask the OP to fix it, or report to mods. Including text of articles in threads is welcome.

  6. Low effort material: Avoid memes/jokes/shitposts in newscomm posts and top-level replies to the newsmega. This kind of content is OK in post replies and in newsmega sub-threads. We encourage the community to balance their contribution of low effort material with effort posts, links to real news/analysis, and meaningful engagement with material posted in the community.

  7. American politics: Discussion and effort posts on the (potential) material impacts of American electoral politics is welcome, but the never-ending circus of American Politics© Brought to You by Mountain Dew™ is not welcome. This refers to polling, pundit reactions, electoral horse races, rumors of who might run, etc.

  8. Electoralism: Please try to avoid struggle sessions about the value of voting/taking part in the electoral system in the West. c/electoralism is right over there.

  9. AI Slop: Don’t post AI generated content. Posts about AI race/chip wars/data centers are fine.
