The Realtor.com® economics team video update gives you the relevant economic and real estate information you need to know to navigate the housing market as a homebuyer, home seller, or industry professional.
In August, Chief Economist Danielle Hale reviews the shifting economic data that are putting more focus on a weakening labor market and somewhat less on moderating inflation. She recaps the July Fed meeting, discusses clues from Chair Powell’s Jackson Hole address, and lays out her expectations for September.
As is typical, mortgage rates have moved ahead of the Fed and the latest Realtor.com Housing & Economic forecast expects more to come. Danielle discusses how these changes are impacting mortgage rate lock-in and homebuyer sentiment. Danielle gives important rent vs. buy context from the July Rental Trends report authored by Jiayi Xu.
Danielle recaps the latest reaction from Joel Berner on builders and new home construction, recent existing home sales, and shares highlights from the Realtor.com July Housing Trends report by Ralph McLaughlin which finds some balance returning to many markets.
Nevertheless, some real estate markets are still hot. Danielle discusses the 2024 Realtor.com Hottest Zip Codes report by Hannah Jones and its number one ZIP.
Danielle also discusses what this finding has in common with the Realtor.com list of Popular Markets. Hint: affordability matters.
