The State of Real Estate
From the New York Times comes this list of trends in real estate, houses, mortgages, and the impact on buyers and sellers.
The State of Real Estate
Whether you’re renting, buying or selling, here’s a look at real estate trends.
- Rising mortgage rates. Faltering home sales. Skyrocketing rents. We spoke with economists, mortgage brokers and real estate agents to plot the course ahead.
- Looking for a house in this tight market? Consider an octagon.
- Hybrid work, layoffs and higher interest rates are leaving lots of office space vacant and hurting the commercial real estate business.
- American home buyers are older, whiter and wealthier than at any time in recent memory, while discrimination is holding Black buyers back in all steps of the process.
- For a long time, the housing shortage in America was mostly a coastal crisis. This map shows that is no longer the case.
- The economics of the housing market have squeezed out “starter homes.” Their disappearance is central to the U.S. housing crisis.
- More young Americans are moving in with their grandparents, in a trend known as “skipped-generation” households.
