Summary

Mortgage rates continue to fall as home buyer demand rises across the nation. We may be back to the times of bidding wars, “rapid appreciation,” and houses going under contract in days. But, most Americans are still sitting on the sidelines, thinking that real estate prices are too expensive to get in. Could this be a huge wealth-building mistake, and will we look back on 2023 prices as times when real estate was “cheap”? We’re back with another correspondents show as Henry, James, and Kathy bring the latest housing market headlines. “But, where’s Dave?” you ask. He’s eating some pad thai, snorkeling, and probably still looking at Fed data, even on his honeymoon. But don’t worry, he’ll be back soon!

If you want to get into real estate or try your first house hack, this is THE news you’ve been waiting for. Next, the most middle-class-friendly cities that you’ve probably never thought of. Then, the short-term rental “tenant from hell” who lived in a home for a year and a half rent-free, and what happened to the landlord as a result. And finally, some good news for buyers, as we discuss the slowly dropping rates and the massive opportunity they could bring.
