I sold my home 2020 and I've been dollar cost averaging all year long and I've almost maxed out my reserve, so I'm basically waiting for stocks to fully recover so I can break even, but on the other hand, I've been coming by articles on people who are puIIing off recurring proflts of over $150K wlthln just weeks of trades, what am i doing wrong?

@Mrshuster 2 ай бұрын

I sold a couple of homes in the Tampa area for pretty good cash and I'm thinking to just leave it in stocks while waiting for a house crash to happen and as well avoid inflation, but is this really a good time to buy stocks? I hear it's a madhouse right now and I still hear folks are raking in huge 6figure profits by the weeks and I'd love to know how.

@larrypaul-cw9nk 2 ай бұрын

look at it this way, while some folks are waiting to make minimal profits when stocks recover, some others folks already know where to look and what to do to make hefty gains in these times, so yea, it all boils down to knowledge to risk mltigation.

True, I was in dilemma myself due to this chaotic mrkt, wasn't sure if to sell or just wait a little longer, 75% of my portfolo was tanking and in the red and the economy isn’t looking promising, but I began gaiinng clarity and have more confidence in my invt through an lnvt-advlser, I know most DlY-lnvestor like me would say advlsors aren't essential, but come to think of it, they're better trained and equipped at this and if I have to give just a little amt in fees for me to be able to net $650K in less than 8months like I did this year, I truly don't mind.

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.

@jonathantaylor6926 3 ай бұрын

I also think a big problem we will see for first time buyers is if/when home prices soften you will see banks tighten lending standards... 3% down isn't that risky for the bank when home prices are appreciating 5 or even 10% YoY.... there will always be equity. But what if home prices go down by 2%... now that 3% downpayment isn't enough protection for the bank. So nearly all first time home buyers will be screwed.. after years of high rents they do not have money for a downpayment... most don't have 5% let alone 20%.

@shawn576 4 ай бұрын

The graphs at 2:05 are shocking. People who already have a home are not selling them, but then the next graph says new inventory is super high, so nobody is buying either. This kind of goes along with something George Gammon said - people with a locked in low rate see the rate itself as the asset. People don't want to sell their home and move because it would mean getting a much higher rate on the house they buy. This would mean that pretty much all selling of used homes is being done by investors; people who have the freedom of selling a home without needing to buy a replacement home.

@jceess 4 ай бұрын

Exactly, nobody who has a rate in the 2-4% range is going to sell unless they absolutely have to. And if they do sell, the smart move might actually be to rent in the meantime. So they're not necessarily buying even after they sell.

I think it's safe to say that Builders have learned a trick or two since 2008. There's plenty of "boots on the ground" evidence suggesting that builders are leavng very small portions of some homes unfinished, so as to keep those units in the "under construction/not yet for sale" category indefinitely. The purpose of that trick being to not oversaturate their market, of course. So, I'm personally very skeptical about the 20% figure being reported.

Thanks for the video. Regarding the new build inventories, you do need to take that with a grain of salt as many builders have or are transitioning to "build-to-order" where they sell the home prior to the construction start. This is a sale and does take a home off the market but the home was not in the traditional "ready to occupy" inventory state. One question for you, I believe there is a accepted standard % of home builds that are "replacements" for things like homes destroyed due to natural disasters. Does your statistics include or exclude these? Curious to know as this might actually make the inventories lower. I also saw a report from Melody Wright, where she was looking into builder inventories that were not listed in the sales inventories so again the this might increase the builders inventories higher. I'm also seeing the builders itemizing the total home prices (i.e. separating things like lots, pools, etc) so that they can reduce costs but keep the appearance of the home price higher/stable. Lets all hope the interest rates stay high, well historically normal around 5%, so that the affordability comes back into line. So frustrating to hear loud voices scream for lower interest rates. That's like taking an aspirin for a headache caused by a brain tumor.

Ok can you track these dividing houses into 3 groups. Under 100k, 100k-500k and 500k-up. If you did that you would see the 3 markets. They are as seperate and distinct with the pools of these homes and the buyers forces over time have made them into nearly unrelated markets. Low: First time low income families, house flippers, small unit renters, downsized former middle class poor old and elderly ect, Middle: Blue\White Collars and Trades. in small market cities are in the "High class" and the lower are in this group in major cities as the rest are renters.

Housing inventory confuses people.. you could build 10M new houses and "inventory" won't move in inch if you don't list them for sale.. Its not a matter of a home existing, but rather being on the MLS... so inventory has the ability to spike aggressively.. You don't need to buy a lot, clear trees, hiring masons and framers and plumbers and electricians to add supply.... all you need to do is make a single phone call to a realtor and you just added a house to the "inventory".... and if you are a panicked investor worried about a RE crash maybe you add two homes or 10 or even 1,000 if you are AHFR or some other massive firm that owns 50,000 SFH's... Investors will drop RE like a bad habit if RE enters a clear bear market, especially of bonds remain an attractive alternative investment. And unlike a normal home owner that sells but then adds corresponding demand when they buy a different house, investors could list a million homes for sale, and buy zero.... they can add massive supply but no demand and thats a huge liability for RE if that momentum ever picks up. And investor selling spiking supply and lowering prices will become a negative feedback loop as other investors look to get out and protect equity.

My bet is that a similar type Evergrande situation will happen in the US, which will be the spark that sets off that type of downward price spiral. Lots of small banks have given out risky loans to businesses to invest in real estate. We already saw two bank failures (Silicone Valley Bank) a year ago, and Powel said to expect more in the future. Whatever happens, businesses that have invested in real estate are a prime candidate to crash the market. If a bank fails which leads to those business failing, or those businesses fail due to bad capital management, that's all it would take to drive the entire market down due to multiple factors. A risky market with failing businesses will slow demand, and failing RE investment firms will throw tens or hundreds of thousands of homes onto the market that need quickly liquidated, which will drive prices down quickly. This can also happen from the bottom up, hitting the small local investor first. Consider that AirBnB has about as many open rooms as the US has missing homes. Rooms aren't directly comparable to homes, but a crash that affects short term rental properties that are heavily mortgaged will also cause huge inventory surplus. Bottom line, I agree. There's lots of inventory out there, if people and businesses wake up one day, change their mind, and decide to start selling. There's record low home occupancy right now, and that's an unsustainable situation. Investors got too greedy, and now no one can afford any home. When one large investor cracks and inventory spikes, the entire market turns on a dime.

If a buyer was just short of a 20% down payment and was planning to rate hack, they could opt to put builder credit toward closing costs to help get them there. Haven't run the numbers on this strategy yet, but this is what I'm leaning towards for my 1st home.

I like your analysis, however, supply and interest rates aren't the only factors contributing to the shortage. You didn't discuss the average sales prices or price range across existing and new homes. There is a massive differential in home prices and I have yet to see new construction building "starter" homes that's affordable to most first-time home buyers. It was also unclear if that all new construction included apartments, condos, and special-case construction (i.e. retirement/long-term care communities). I like how you presented the information, but focusing solely on mortgage rates and stock available, while not even acknowledging other variables that are contributing, could mislead people at worse, and at least, presents an oversimplified view of the market.

America is currently plagued by the hydra-headed evil duo of inflation and recession. The worst part about this recession is that consumers are racking up credit card debt. In April alone, credit card debt went up 20% while rates have doubled in a year. Inflation is so high that consumers are literally taking debt for basic life necessities. Collapse has indeed begun..

This is basically telling me that home depot sales and plumber, electrician, and carpenter wages are about to go through the roof. Those people may not be forced to sell their home because of low rates, but they will be forced to start fixing them up once they start falling apart.

@alexlowe2054 3 ай бұрын

I'd bet against that trend. The majority of the trade job market is powered by new construction. You need far fewer electricians or carpenters to fix an issue than you need to build a home from scratch. Plus, those old homes needed fixed anyways. Whoever moves into the old home would have needed to repair their home, so that shouldn't have an upwards effect on the market. A construction crash will drive wages down, for better or worse.

Statistics is so useless. The problem with housing is BlackRock, Vanguard, UBS and Fidelity overpaid for residential houses for over a decade after the housing bubble. They are controlling the release of their massive inventories to maintain inflated prices in an attempt to minimize losses. These firms own 80% of everything. That's the problem. They can manipulate anything and residential housing is the easiest one to control because you need a place to live. This bubble, this time, will be everything, not just housing.

I disagree. The FED ultimately cares about one thing- the dollar. So long as we have hot inflation the FED can not cut even if the economy is deteriorating. Remember the FED doesn't just "cut rates" by decree.. The FED only has direct control over the "Over Night Rate"... the real way the FED lowers rates is through "Quantitative Easing"... so the FED for example does't just get to say "The 10 year UST is now going to pay 3%".... nope. In order for the FED to manipulate bond rates lower they have to BUY THE DEBT WITH PRINTED MONEY.... but that becomes a big problem because printing money to create demand for bonds and lower yields is practically the definition of "inflation". They absolutely cant QE into hot inflation or they will have way hotter inflation after a few quarters.

This approach seems short sighted. The number of homes which are unoccupied and not for sale is near a record high. Prices are rising so rapidly that owners have no incentive to sell if they can keep gaining equity by waiting. In fact investors are buying homes and not even renting them because they can still sell them for a profit in the future. This situation will collapse once there is even a minor month to month price drop. At this point those timing the market will all sell at once leading to a crash like just happened in China. Then of coarse there is the boomers. A generation notorious for hoarding multiple vacation homes not available for rent. Eventually these homes will be inherited by generation y and gen z who would simply cash out by selling them. That is going to cause a huge excess of inventory.

Eric, while i generally agree with you on most things, the use of Months Supply is a flawed statistic. It makes the assumption that Supply and Demand are at equilibrium. Current estimated place the US housing market as under built by 4 million units, meaning demand is much steonger than months supply would indicate. Additionally we have to account for the drastic change in interest rates that have slowed homes from coming onto the market. No one is going to downgrade their home to pay 30% more than their current home. I feel its important to put that caveat in the data because it implies that there is an oversupply issue that cant exist.

@satsujin22 4 ай бұрын

You're demonstrating a fundamental misunderstanding of the discussion. Months supply is literally a measurement of supply and demand. Claiming that it assumes a equilibrium is a meaningless statement, because that would mean there is a 0 months supply. Months supply doesn't get measured in the negative, it's literally saying how long it would take for an event to occur.

"Crisis", your title says there is an inventory crisis, but it would seem right now we are actually heading towards normal. In your video, you don't say anything that would suggest things will overshoot to the other extreme. I love your style of video and the presentation of data, but your video title is a bit misleading this time. As for the data itself, the pandemic and historically low interest rates allowed millions to refinance at a level that made selling their home irrational. This clearly has lead to a low supply of existing homes forcing people who need/want a home to buy new construction. Probably the singular more important thing going forward will be Fed rates as they influence leading rates. As lending rates come down it will be more financially feasible for people to sell existing homes financed at ultra-low rates. Also, over time new construction will become existing homes, financed at higher rates, meaning those existing homeowners would feel rate-locked into their homes and free to move about helping normalize the housing market as a whole.

I’ve followed and participated in the SFR market, as a builder, buyer and seller, and owner for SIX (6) decades. While supply lags demand, these factors have little to do with the “affordability crisis” for homes. As a CPA and financial analyst for nearly five plus decades, the problem of affordability is three fold. 1) the USD, as global reserve currency, has lost more value over this period due to profligate Federal spending by Democrat administrations, 2) tax rules for exemption of so-called “gain” on the sale of SFR has NOT been adjusted to account for inflation (this factor is HUGE), and 3) wages have not kept pace with the expectations of younger families due to loss of value in the US currency. The Democrats are not the party of the common person, but rather multi-millionaire elites.

The data shows you're dead wrong. There is no crisis. No decline for the country as a whole. Because the number of people looking to 'buy the dip' in real estate is EPIC. Kinda similar to 2000. Stocks collapse. Funds go into hard assets. U.S. debt is out of control, so Treasuries are no longer "safe." So even more money flowing into hard assets. The people who understand the value of hard assets won't be selling. So supply vs demand means prices can only go UP over the mid & long terms.
