Today’s podcast goes over a topic near and dear to my heart! What did the Federal Reserve mean by housing reset? Of course, I have a structural bias here because the unhealthy housing market in 2021 became savagely unhealthy in 2022 due to historically low inventory levels, which created forced bidding. I am hoping more financial reporters start asking the Federal Reserve members what does this mean?

Since the unhealthy aspect of housing started, I need total inventory levels to get back to 1.52-1.93 million to remove the savagely unhealthy title from the marketplace. Yes, this is still the four-decade low in total inventory levels going back to the 1980s, and our population has grown a lot since then. However, it’s a more functioning housing market than we have now.
(Per the last existing home sales report)
The only reason median days on the market are at all-time lows, and 82% of homes are sold within a month, is not because of booming housing demand; it’s a lack of product.

Remember, purchase application data is below 2008 levels today.

I am no longer writing for my blog; all my work can be found at HousingWire; you can use my LoganVIP50 code to join HousingWire Plus. Also, I can’t join Twitter Spaces, a podcast, or an interview unless it goes through Press@HWMedia.com first.
My recent article goes over the most recent jobs data, and since all six of my recession red flags are up, I am tracking other data lines now more closely and not bothering with others.
