Brad Caldwell+FollowIs It Finally Time to Buy a House?Thinking about buying a home but feeling stuck? You’re not alone! Bank of America says the housing market could finally get easier for buyers in 2025, with more homes to choose from and prices slowing down. But here’s the twist: tons of Gen Z and millennials are hustling—taking on side gigs or moving farther out—just to make it work. If you’re waiting for rates to drop, you’re in good company. Keep an eye out—your dream home might be closer than you think! #housingmarket #homebuying #GenZ #RealEstate10Share
Brad Caldwell+FollowWould You Buy a House in China Now?If you think your local housing market is wild, check out China’s: home prices there could drop another 10% by 2027, says Goldman Sachs. The drama started when the government clamped down on risky loans, and now, four years later, the market still hasn’t hit bottom. For regular folks, this means if you’re eyeing a property in China, patience might pay off—prices could keep sliding. But don’t expect a quick rebound; experts say it’ll be a slow crawl back up. #ChinaRealEstate #MoneyTalk #HousingMarket #RealEstate47Share
Brad Caldwell+FollowIs Homeownership Still a Dream?Thinking about buying a house? Brace yourself: in 47 out of 50 big U.S. cities, you’ll need to spend way more than the old-school 30% of your income just to afford a typical home. Only Pittsburgh, Detroit, and St. Louis still fit the budget-friendly bill. For everyone else, sticker shock is real—especially in places like LA or NYC, where a mortgage can eat up most of your paycheck. Unless more affordable homes pop up, that white picket fence may stay a dream for many. #housingmarket #homebuying #affordability #RealEstate00Share
Samantha Welch+FollowWhy Buying a House Feels Impossible NowThinking about buying a house? You’re not alone in feeling stuck. Home sales just hit their slowest pace since 2009, and experts say it could get even worse this year. Fewer people moving means less shopping at places like Home Depot and fewer renovations—so the whole economy feels the pinch. If you’re renting, you might actually be saving money, since high mortgage rates and rising taxes make owning pricier than ever. Maybe it’s time to enjoy that rental flexibility a little longer! #HousingMarket #MoneyTips #HomeBuying #RealEstate10Share
Denise Kemp+FollowWhy Are Homes Still So Pricey?Thinking about buying a house? Here’s the scoop: even though there are more homes for sale than last year, prices just hit a new record high—over $422K on average! Homes are sitting on the market a bit longer, but with mortgage rates still high, buyers aren’t rushing in. If rates drop later this year, expect more action. For now, sellers still have the upper hand, especially in the Northeast. If you’re house hunting, patience (and maybe a bigger down payment) is key! #RealEstate #HomeBuying #HousingMarket65Share
Matthew Jackson+FollowWhy Are Houses Sitting So Long Now?Noticing more 'For Sale' signs sticking around? You’re not alone. The 2025 housing market is way slower than last year—homes are piling up, but buyers aren’t biting. Builders are even tossing in discounts and upgrades to get attention. The twist? Even with more choices, prices haven’t really dropped, and monthly payments are still rough. If you’re house hunting, this could be your moment to negotiate. Sellers, be ready to get real about pricing! #HousingMarket #RealEstateTips #HomeBuying #RealEstate01Share
Aaron Ballard+FollowWhy New Homes Are Getting Scarce AgainHeads up if you’re house hunting: new home construction just hit its lowest point since the pandemic. Builders are pumping the brakes thanks to high interest rates, which means fewer new places popping up—especially apartments. Translation: finding an affordable spot might get even tougher. If you’re waiting for prices to drop, you might be waiting a while. Maybe time to cozy up to your current lease or start stalking those listings early! #HousingMarket #HomeBuying #MoneyTips #RealEstate10Share
Aaron Ballard+FollowWhy New Homes Are So Hard to Find NowEver wonder why it feels impossible to find a new house these days? Builders are hitting pause—new home construction just dropped to a five-year low, and even big names like Lennar are feeling the pinch. High mortgage rates and pricier building materials (thanks, tariffs!) are making it tough for both buyers and builders. If you’re house hunting, you might notice fewer options and higher prices. Might be time to cozy up in your current place a little longer! #HousingMarket #RealEstate #MoneyTips72Share
Samantha Welch+FollowHouse Hunting? Now’s Your Power MoveThinking about buying a home? Good news: there are more houses on the market, and sellers are starting to cut prices. That means you’ve got more options and a bit more wiggle room to negotiate. Homes are sitting longer before selling, so you don’t have to rush your decision. But don’t expect mortgage rates to drop just yet—affordability is still a challenge. If you’re ready to shop, this summer could be your window! #housingmarket #homebuying #realestate10Share
shall+FollowRent money in Atlanta is a mistakeConsidering a short-term move to Atlanta? Think twice before renting. With ATL's booming growth and limited housing inventory, property values are holding strong. Recently, I was thinking about a house viewing in Atlanta that still blows my mind! For $730,000, I saw what felt like an estate. This 1996-built gem boasted 5 beds, 5 baths, 6300 sq ft, and 0.77 acres. Even for shorter stays, buying lets you build equity instead of funding someone else's mortgage. The math doesn't lie—owning in Atlanta's market could be your smartest financial move yet. #AtlantaRealEstate #HousingMarket00Share
