What does this mean?

  • The direction and pace at which home prices are changing are indicators of the strength of the housing market and whether homes are becoming more or less affordable.
  • The median price of a home in the United States is currently $480,900.

What do you think?

Piatt’s Crystal Ball: (as we know, in this market, all things are possible. This is just my thoughts.)

  • 4-5 months of inventory equals a shift from a “Seller’s Market” to a “Balanced Market.”
  • We are currently at 3 months; likely to hit 4 in the next 60 days
  • Rates are likely to stay over 5%; don’t date the rate.
  • Due to this, we will likely see a possible decline in home prices throughout the next 6-12 months.
