Quote from @Chris John:

I know I've pointed this out, but I still think the comparison should be price per square foot.  To me, with low interest rates and easy money, that's a great time to trade up into a larger house.  With higher interest rates, I'm thinking that more smaller houses are being sold.  So, are we seeing a price drop because houses are actually getting cheaper or are more smaller houses selling which makes it look like prices are coming down?  No idea. 

I'd like to see @Greg R. and @James Hamling come up with competing sets of data and argue about it though!  haha.

Great idea Chris. There could be something to the price per Sqft angle. Not sure how to get that data... any suggestions?

And there are no competing sets of data. There is me producing current monthly sales data from the MLS and public records (via realtor.com & redfin), and there's James who produces quarterly data from Q2 2022 and then tries to pretend that those are current market data sets 😂

Also US housing market recorded the 7th straight month of price declines, which makes a 10% price decrease nationally over the last 7 months (since the peak of the bubble.) 


 Really? Because according to the data from FRED, your full of sh#t. Please explain this. 

😂😂😂 Per realtor.com today... "Nationally, median home list prices dropped about 11% from their peak over the summer"

Waiting for @Michael Wooldridge

Lmao, this is too funny. I really do appreciate all the ammo James, you make it way too easy. Do you know the difference between monthly and quarterly - google it? Your chart stops in Q2 of 2022, which was the peak of the bubble. 

The purveyor of falsehoods strikes again!!! 

 FYI, I'm not FRED. 

Not my chart buddy. 

I'm going to try to respond in simple terms to give you the best chance of understanding. I never said "twin cities". I Provided data for Minneapolis. <<<--- Read this sentence twice. 

Now, below is median sold data per the MLS & public records for MINNEAPOLIS - NOT Twin Cities . Per this data June was the peak with a sold median price of 360k, and as of December the median sold price is 305k.

If your argument is that Redfin's reporting of data from the MLS and public records is inaccurate, please post your evidence.

Again, provide evidence that a publicly traded real estate company with a market cap of $665,000,000 is lying to the public with their reporting data. 

I'll keep an open mind. If you provide evidence, I'll stop citing data provided by Redfin. 

Here is exhibit b, data from realtor.com. Numbers aren't identical, but it shows the same in terms of June/July being the peak, and declines since then. 

So here are two very reputable sources showing a peak in June/ July, and price declines since then. 

Again, provide evidence that both realtor.com and redfin are providing inaccurate reporting data.

A couple other take aways... 

- Denver, a generally strong market recorded it's 7th straight month of price declines, declining $125,000 and 18%. Quite the fall in only 7 months

- Chicago IL is down 75k and over 20% since June

- Las Vegas is down 57k and over 13% since June

- Tucson AZ is down 45k and over 13% since June

- Minneapolis MN is down 55k and over 15% since June

- Philadelphia PA is down 43k and 15% since June

- Boston is down 90k and over 11% since July

- Detroit MI is down over 17% since July

- Seattle WA is down 107k and 12% since May

This is not just a west coast or a CA thing. 




 What in the fogazzi is wrong with you?!    This is an outright LIE! NO, Twin Cities is NOT down 55K or 15%. That is my HOME MARKET, I have full feed, have posted many times, which you ignore and then just make up total BS lies saying it's all going to hell. 

Here is the REAL data. 

It just doesn't end with you Greg, you just keep making things up and posting FALSE information. I don't have a direct feed on those other markets like I do T.C. but I'd love to see the REAL DATA from those who do to cross check your statements, being SO WRONG about T.C. market that it's not wrong, it's just out-right lies. 

So James, this is incorrect?

Quote from @Michael Wooldridge:

Dallas is getting hit. Some of the west coast is but as @Carlos Ptriawan pointed out some of that is evening out. but there are plenty of flat markets across the East. Cali also drove a lot of the national decline.t.

Look at my last post, I didn't include any from CA or TX.
