Welcome to the Real Estate Market in 2023!

The last 3 years since the Pandemic started in 2020 through the end of 2022 have been a wild ride for Real Estate...!  2023 is a continuation of that wild ride. As much as I would love to say the wild ride is coming to the end... that is not likely to be true at this moment.  

- Interest Rates have ROARED to Highs not seen in decades and the battle against inflation is ON.  That battle looks to be one that will rage on for potentially much of 2023 and into 2024.   

- Welcome to Nobodies market.   It's tough for buyer's to swallow the higher cost of money and for seller's not only do they have to decide where will they go, now they're facing the higher cost of money along with that decision.

- Inventory Issues Persist which makes it easier for seller's to feel like they command the market edge, but that feeling is tenuous at best as home buyers are making much more frugal choices with purchases and the cost of money is 10x (almost literally) what it was a year ago. 

- Home affordability Dominates housing market concerns along with lingering historic and generational shortage of housing supply.  

- New Home Construction has gone even LOWER than in 2022 with higher costs for financing affecting builders, and lingers FAR Below market need.  

- Homeowners who might consider selling have decided not to and unless they need to they won't sell.

- Don't look for Foreclosures to change market conditions anytime soon.  The number of foreclosures remains a Non-Issue affecting the market as equity is so high that if someone is behind on their mortgage all they need to do is put the home for sale and they're cash-flush again.
