Today’s podcast discusses the damage done by high home prices. I also talk about how we have a shot to get inventory back to normal levels next year.

I know being part of Team Higher Rates isn’t popular, but imagine how much worse price growth could have been if mortgage rates were still at 3% today. If we have a society that needs 3% mortgage rates for builders to build more homes, but at the cost of existing homes being up over 20% year over year, that is an issue with the system.
