New Home FIRE SALE in Houston TX | This is CRAZY

[@ericheatmiser2099]

100k off a 800k home isn't a big discount. Those homes need to drop another 300k to be reasonable. This IS NOT a FIRE SALE. 😆

Those prices are way too high! Even with the $100K-$200k deductions. Those homes used to be $200-$400K pre pandemic

[@rolandoaponte9062]

Not really, although some of the posted price is speculation driven, most of the increases experienced are inflation driven (workers salaries, cost of materials, permits cost, etc). For this type of houses the $400k level would not attract any developer at all, creating a housing supply crisis.

Another thing that I think will affect the housing market is 1) oil & gas prices 2) oil and gas company mergers. The mergers come with job cuts redundancy. I’m an engineer and been in the industry for over 20yrs and we see that down cycle starting. Brace for impact! Yes, I know that Houston has broad industry. However, oil and gas has a massive domino effect 🤷‍♂️

[@sanpreetminhas7958]

​@@Mellowyellow8888 As you said, geo are far and few. But majority of employees are from other areas in operating orgs and are deeply affected especially if you are far from the production field since companies are looking to cut overhead costs in any way possible be it outsource it to a consultancy at a lower rate or try and offshore it. In terms of overall budget and headcount geos are small portion of the workforce. So the 4 severe oil price collapse in last 16 years will be like the last 3. There was a time when enthusiasm for the field had disappeared for a reason, people were just exhausted with the ups and downs.

Also, the established Houston/galveston suburbs close to downtown have been selling homes like crazy. Those near the water are fleeing because of home owners insurance and flood insurance. Manvel is another area with alot of land. Mansions and huge price drops in new construction. Property taxes are like 3.6% which is ridiculous due to the mud tax and not doable Crazy how cheap these areas were 10 years ago.

It doesn't matter with thee token price cuts. These houses are still overpriced by 150,000 -$200,000 dollars. With tech companies slimming workers it is a big gamble to purchase a house. With increases in property taxes and HOA and potential CDD fees you have no control over. I live in Montana and we have no sales tax so when there is a shortfall the money comes from us homeowners with an increase in property tax.

Love the video and information, but the city of Houston is in Harris County. Houston County 1:13 is over 100 miles north of the city Houston, Texas

[@angietyra9690]

We have been informed that by 2028, we will have 25000 new homes on FM 1486!😢. THIS IS INSANE-deforestation at a crazy rate! FOR WHAT?

Houston was “over” for me once Katrina aftermath happened.

[@JK-ks3xq]

You're right! Katrina blew in all that trash from New Orleans and surrounding areas into Houston.

[@Donkiko-bz1lv]

Yup it was great city before that.

Yeah, it went down the chitter quickly after importing the Sect 8 people. It’s an immigration war zone here. I’m from here. I don’t recommend it to any American.

You couldn’t pay me to return to Texas where I was born. No thanks. I prefer cooler temperate climates and specifically, far from the West Coast as possible after being in Los Angeles and learning about Fukushima and the long-term health problems resulting from anyone facing those regions.

[@earthlynnone7383]

What area are you in now? I'm over LA too, even though I was born there and will always visit. TX is a damn dumpster fire and my family has owned land here and Louisiana for centuries....sharp decline in quality of life especially after this recent storm and current heatwave

[@re8746]

I live in central Texas. New home sales are down 39% since 2022. Overpaying for a home could easily be financial ruin for most.

[@marginbuu212]

They're building these enormous homes for families but the trend is that Americans aren't getting married and having families. Would love to see the demographics on who is actually buying these.

[@lindajohnson.]

I can’t believe anyone would buy with the interest rates.😮😮😮😮

[@realestatemindset]

Agreed

I lived in West Houston, Katy from 2011-2017. The growth and housing explosion was something that truly can’t be described. And still growing as evidenced by his visit!!

[@fairbanj]

I live out by the Katy area and I'm happy to say that it is still possible to buy a reasonable home in Houston. Our home was new construction in 2002, 3100 sq ft and we paid $175K. We are just a bit north of I-10, so commutes are not bad either. Today the home is worth $340K according to Zillow. I can't imagine paying 400-700K for a similar sized home in these other subdivisions that are even farther out in the suburbs.

I livd in Pearland, a little south of the Med center. We have very good schools all the way from Elementary to High school and House's are still selling, obviously not like a few years ago amid the bidding wars, but houses are still selling....

Not a real estate expert nor professional but people need to think small in the bust is my view/move dowtown have a 2nd home on the Gulf Coast that can work as a rental say in Galveston etc.

[@user-pm3wc5jv3c]

These homes are so massively overpriced that a $101,000 price cut is a joke. I hope these builders have to eat these houses.

Lake Loraine sub division has 3 homes for sale. It’s one road in and out. No traffic in the neighborhood. Homes are in the high 300-500s.

I guess you don't get much for 700k these days. On another note, how many people actually have the jobs to support these prices? As for the resales in the super new neighborhood, perhaps some people bit off a bit more than they could chew and have to get out.

[@twoistwo]

We have income tax here in Texas in the form of sales tax and property tax. Also, those homes are far away from houston.
