The NAR is pushing their latest propaganda above – but they they gloss over the fact that YoY rates were only 1/4% better in March and April when those decisions were made to close the sales in May.

Rates started rising in 2018, and you can see how it affected the pendings below. In a fortuitous change this year, rates are dropping and will probably see their 2019 low point in the next couple of weeks as the markets prepare for a Fed rate cut in July – but we aren’t seeing a bump in pendings just yet:

July is probably as good as it’s going to get for the rest of 2019!

California. People are living longer and better and staying in their homes longer. Population has been growing many multiples of housing supply. There is little sign of higher density to offset this trend. Much housing is lacking three of the three attributes: location.

There are no serious price threats foreseeable. good time to position for a long term home.

There is little sign of higher density to offset this trend.

Little to no sign, and if there were, the NIMBYs would have something to say about it.
