Blackstone is liquidating properties in Florida. “For sale signs are everywhere”.

Blackstone is beginning to sell their housing portfolio in Florida, particularly here in St. Petersburg where the inventory of homes for sale has spiked in the last year.
This house behind me in this video is behind sold by a Blackstone-owned company called Home Partners of America. They bought it in August 2022 for $380,000 and now they have it listed for $370,000 - at a $10,000 loss.
Other Wall Street investors are also now selling homes on the US Housing Market, including First Key, Progress Residential, and AmericanHomes4Rent. The reason these investors are selling is because the local rental market is softening and because inventory is exploding.
Home prices in Florida look like they are on the way down. Especially in a market like Tampa-St. Petersburg.

3 weeks ago I showed you First Key Homes dumping a house in Punta Gorda at a 25% loss. Now we have Blackstone selling a house in St. Petersburg for a $10,000 loss. I spoke to the local realtor here who said this is one of many that they are selling. Meanwhile - inventory in this ZIP code is now almost double the long-term average. Florida is going down. And going down fast. Many locally here though, amazingly, don't know it. Many people I speak to think prices won't go down (even though they are already going down). Will be a very interesting second half of the year in Florida.

Meanwhile, nicer, average-sized homes in better neighborhoods that were over $300K a decade ago are now selling for $750K+. It's wild.

Because so many people overpaid for homes during a period when interest rates were low, I believe there will be a housing crisis because these people are in debt. If housing prices continue to fall and, for whatever reason, they can no longer afford the house and it goes into foreclosure, they will have no equity because they will not make any money if they sell. I feel that many people will be affected by this, especially given the predicted mass layoffs and fast rising living costs.

I recommend investing in shares to balance out your real estate assets. Even the toughest recessions can give wonderful purchasing opportunities if you are prudent.

[@FaithAndrada-xo9ou]

In the early 1990s, when I bought my first home in Miami, it was common for first mortgages to have rates between 8% and 10%. It's important to recognize that we may never see 3% rates again. If sellers are forced to sell, home prices might need to drop, resulting in lower valuations. I believe many people share this perspective.

[@AndersonFair-cy2bb]

Home prices will come down eventually, but for now; get your money (as much as you can) out of the housing market and get into the financial markets or gold. The new mortgage rates are crazy, add to that the recession and the fact that mortgage guidelines are getting more difficult. Home prices will need to fall by a minimum of 40% (more like 50%) before the market normalizes. If you are in cross roads or need sincere advise on the best moves to take now its best you seek an independent advisor who knows about the financial markets.

Once we calculated turning that into something worth selling the margins were thin. It only got worse since then.

I find 370k for that old Florida style house is kind of funny. In most of Florida, you can't even build a house like that anymore. You really can't modernize them that much. Most are on tiny lots with no room to expand. The majority, by far, have damaged terracotta pipes leading from the house to the sewer or a septic system that's usually in need of repair. Even on its best day, when I was a kid in the 80s, that was a 60k house, maybe 90k in the late 90's. In my mind, it's not worth a penny over 110k. I've owned plenty of these, and the rehab on the best of them is usually 50k. That house, in St. Pete, is way over priced. I'm happy for whoever sold that house to Blackstone for getting out and making it a corporate investor's problem. They'll never, ever get their money back.

I've lived in St. Petersburg my whole life, and right now is the hardest time people in the city have had getting by. Most of these prices are propped up by outsiders, like Californians and New Yorkers, selling their homes for three or four times what a home costs here, then moving here and thinking it's a deal. The biggest issue is, like you said, the incomes in the area nowhere match the cost of living now. Either incomes have to come up or prices have to drop. I agree, and I've been saying the same thing for the past two or three years at least. Florida has raised the minimum wage, but just because the floor is moving up doesn't mean companies are raising their other employees' pay at the same rate.

In 2019 that property sold for $155k. It looks like they did put some money into it and it's under contract now (7/28/2024). If the final price is anywhere near that $370k listing price, they'll have made some good dough on that one. So even though it's down 10k, it's still way over historical norms.

Problem in Vegas is a bunch of Ibuyers went crazy in 2021, Zillow would have 30+ homes listed every week while buying 30+ homes then have the new homes listed 2 weeks later for 20K more while buying 30 more homes at the new price. Then in late 2022 all the ibuyers liquidated which drove our inventory up to 7-9k homes through early 2023. Our inventory got as low as about 2500 again at the start of 2024 and has actually been climbing quite rapidly for the last few months already breaking 5300 now and adding about 40-50 houses every couple days. Very few homes at the lower end of the market have been selling from what i've seen although $1m+ homes are, just mostly after large discounts from listed price.

Always check the assessed value

[@crb4059]

why ? its meaningless

[@mosesbrown4126]

Living in Vegas currently, and I assure you, they are working on the inventory. There are planned neighborhoods going up all over at all corners of the city. That said, there is for sure some amount of market manipulation going on with a degree of collusion between the Adelson owned Las Vegas Review Journal and the real-estate people.

Great point. I just moved to a new apartment by the Palms and Rio hotel

[@moving-to-orlando-florida]

So that house is NOT an indication of Blackstone "dumping" houses. Home Partners of America is a rent to own company, a potential buyer can use them to buy the home cash, rent it for up to five years and they have the option to buy it. If they move out early, HPA will sell the house. Yes, they might be selling it "at a loss", but remember they collected years of rent. I'd guess this one is a "wash" for them. But to be clear, HPA is not the entity Blackstone uses to hold long term rentals.

[@gatornuggies]

Sure but the insurance on it skyrocketed. The novel business plan the HPA was trying out doesn't seem to work. What does Blackstone do with a failed business they just acquired?

[@kimmatura3564]

My sister and brother-in-law own 9 houses they bought after the last crash. They sold a business and the houses are their income.

[@stacyroberson4097]

Not for much longer after more people begin losing their jobs come fall. It's going to be a FINANCIAL BLOOD BATH.

Coming soon to the DFW area. There's so many new apartments built, and most of them very nice apartments in DFW that rents are dropping. In Colling country, Plano, Frisco, Allen, McKinney. you can get a new one bedroom apartment for $1,250. That's amazing considering that down the street homes are $450,000 with 8% interest rates, and $1,000 for taxes and $250 insurance. If you buy here better have 100K for down payment, and expect to pay $3,000 to $4,000 a month escrow, or rent down the street for $1,700 for 2 bedroom.

Dfw ahead of florida

[@americanharleyrider8]

I lived in Orlando Florida in 1986. My Apartment rent was $300.00 a Month. The good old days. Will we see these prices again.

[@WETALKINMEDIA]

@americanharleyrider8 to have that type of decline the wages and jobs would need to be reset......there not giving you 300$ a month makin 100k it will never be to ur advantage government is built this way

[@americanharleyrider8]

@@WETALKINMEDIA I have traveled a lot. I was in Sydney Australia. The women I talked to did not like their Government. They said we cannot afford anything. California is a giant mess. High taxes and lots of welfare. I never went back. Florida is full of homeless people. Begging for something to eat or drink. We are in a recession heading for the Great Depression 2.0. You will see a fire sale in 2025 like you have never seen before. If a McDonald’s hamburger is $2.00 but, nobody has $2.00 is it really a good deal? Nobody around here is buying new houses or cars.

Zillow falsely prices homes.

[@plektosgaming]

Investor/second homes/etc in Vegas are almost at 40%. People keep buying, thinking the money and profit is there. When ( not if ) it collapses, it'll be the #1 bloodbath in the nation, just like in 2008.

[@squarecracker]

And that wasn't even bad because they didn't allow it to truly correct, they cut rates and printed money. Where we are now is just an extension of that, and in all likelihood they will do the same thing again.

[@lewlew5660]

Vegas is a unique market where almost 80% of buildable land in the county is owned by the federal government. Not comparable to these other markets that have unlimited space to build

[@plektosgaming]

@@lewlew5660 Except that there are over 100,000 vacant homes in the county as well. B&Bs, Investments held off-market, 2nd or 3rd homes sitting there, and more. It has one of the highest percentages of non-resident homes in the nation, and you can hardly drive three blocks without seeing a piece of vacant land. There's plenty of homes, or will be once the panic sets in. Us locals? Seen it before. Got our popcorn ready.

[@lewlew5660]

Very familiar with the market. Population growth is much higher now than it was in 2008. Everybody is being priced out of California and need somewhere to move. Over 170,000 people have moved to clark county from California since 2021. Not comparable at all to 2008 much different market now in terms of supply and demand.

[@plektosgaming]

@@lewlew5660 They built a TON of homes, too, so that 110K vacant homes is at current population. Migration is also slowing down (net outflow is rapidly approaching net zero growth - maybe 1-2 years at this rate) a lot as everyone is choosing Arizona and Texas as they are dropping in price, while speculators are creating a bubble here. My own parents looked at Vegas and decided that they would simply more to Illinois. $385K and the house is perfect, 2500sq ft, and on a half acre. In Peoria in an upper-class area, so not some tiny shoebox of a town, either. My other relatives all moved to Tucson as it was cheaper than Vegas by far. (about 150K cheaper now than Vegas).

[@GerryMander-kj9sz]

Seems like homeowner insurance trends should play a major role. Not just the latest increases, but also what's reasonably to come.

[@jbcfamily4802]

St. Pete florida is a bad area to live. Unless yojr rich, it's one of the coolest places to live. St Pete is a unique place in the you go from luxurious apartments and homes to the "bad area" within a short 15 min drive.
