Mortgage interest rates have spiked to nearly 7% and this is causing home buyers as well as home sellers to back off. According to Redfin, due to mortgage rates surging “the typical homebuyer’s monthly mortgage payment has climbed $337 (15%) over the past six weeks.” Meanwhile, pending home sales dipped to the lowest levels since May 2020, price drops are at an all-time high (data back to 2015) and houses are selling for less than the asking price on a national average.

  1. I love the data. It would be a little bit more better if you compared these numbers with a balanced market, instead of only the unbalanced market of the last couple of years. For example, I think you said 32% of homes sold at or above their list price, but you only compared that to 2020 and 2021. How about 2015 or 2018.

  2. Redfin SVP : “If your home is not “belle of the ball”, you need to cut the price ! ” 😀
    But I haven’t seen Redfin’s own listings showing any sensible price cuts , at least in the bay area where MoM prices are dropping. All I see are removing the listing and listing it again and again.. There are other websites which show all the activity anyways.. not sure who they are trying to fool.

  3. We’ve been looking for a house since January. We decided this last weekend to put a pause on that until home prices come in-line with mortgage rates.

  4. The FED wants housing to revalue. I’ve heard something before about not fighting the FED.

  5. Dear Jason,

    Do inventories include new construction homes ? I understand that the homes builders rarely list new homes for sales.

    Thanks a lot.

    1. Normally it’s existing housing inventory only unless otherwise stated. Redfin and Realtor.com report inventory numbers for existing homes.

  6. I live in a market where it has been historically, incredibly cheap to rent. The average rent price for a 900 sqft place was $550. Now its $1200. But home prices on a 30 yr mortgage were $1200 and are now $2300.

    That extra money will go a lot further in treasury bonds than home equity.

  7. ❤ can you do Nashville market update. I’m seeing a major shift in volume on the market

  8. Putting your home on the market in September is counterproductive and a waste of time. If you’re seriously interested in selling it, try putting it on in Thanksgiving in warmer areas or April for colder climates. And offer seller financing at a reasonable rate (4 or 5 percent).

  9. Right now homes are selling at asking or 10k under asking around me HOWEVER I see some huge price drops from less desirable homes (not updated, asking way way too much, not the best neighborhood, small etc) so I think that’s a great sign. I just hope the cost of everything else comes down too!
