Does any BP'ers living in these areas, see this info as jiving with their local analysis.  10 Cities In Danger Of A Housing Crash This YearBy Jade Scipioni Published April 08, 2019 With Manhattan real estate reporting its longest losing streak in 30 years, and its worst first quarter since the financial crisis, according to Douglas Elliman, it’s no surprise that many cities around the country are in danger of a housing crash this year.According to a new report released Monday, more than 40 U.S. cities are nipping at the heels of a potential housing crisis especially in “old” Northeast and Midwest cities.To determine which areas are heading toward a housing crisis, GoBankingRates.com analyzed data on 175 of the largest U.S. cities.Researchers then used key factors, including the percentage of homes with mortgages with negative equity (also known as “underwater”), meaning the home is currently worth less than the total cost of the mortgage, along with city’s mortgage delinquency rate from Zillow’s February 2019 index.Additionally, the personal finance website calculated each area’s homeowner vacancy rate and rental rate using data from the Census Bureau’s 2017 American Community Survey combined with foreclosure rates from RealtyTrac.To make the list, cities had to have rates of negative equity in excess of 8.2 percent, which is the current the U.S. national average rate of homes “underwater.”Here are the top 10 cities in the most danger of a housing crash this year. 1.

My initial suspicion is that Yardi is measuring those several thousand rent rates listed in the upper 100s lower 1000s as individual units as opposed to the combined units they make up, which would explain the abysmal 8.8% drop in rental rate that I simply am not seeing.I may stand to be corrected if the area researchers for YM account for that and determine how many of those listed rent rates are in a unit, but I could definitely see it being due to the speed at which they are having to collect all of the data for each market.Do we have anyone from Yardi Matrix on the forums that would have some more insight on this?
