Buyers market or housing CRASH?
WOW, it is crazy how divided articles, economist, housing experts and the media are so split on this TOPIC? I am seeing people that I know or follow that study data say "it is a buyers market". I am also seeing articles, news, etc. from smart people say we are going to have a 2008 like CRASH is some markets? They seem to be talking about a hypothetical future based on guessing because I do NOT see the data supporting a housing crash.
What do you THINK?
Lets look at the DATA:
Properties on the market. As of Dec 2022 it was 970K and about 200K + were in escrow

Borrower profile: The higher the number below the easier it is to get a MORTGAGE, so HIGH is BAD.
