In a shocking turn of events, Reventure Consulting unveils the unfolding housing recession sweeping across America in 2025. With over half of US states witnessing home value declines in April, the housing market correction is hitting hard. Florida, Colorado, and Washington DC are among the states experiencing significant drops, indicating a widespread phenomenon affecting 27 states. The plummeting buyer demand, resting at 30-year lows due to exorbitant prices and sky-high 7% mortgage rates, paints a grim picture of the current housing landscape.
As existing home sales hit a six-month low, plummeting 40% from the pandemic peak, the affordability crisis intensifies. Despite some relief with improving affordability, cities like California continue to witness price declines. The surge in housing inventory signifies the end of a national shortage, setting the stage for further price drops. The stark contrast between Florida and New York exemplifies the housing market's divergence, with Florida's inventory skyrocketing while New York's remains low, reflecting the varying market conditions across the country.
The housing correction stems from inflated prices dissuading potential buyers, as highlighted in a Reventure survey where a staggering 70% cited high prices as the main obstacle to home buying. The market finds itself in the grips of a massive bubble, with prices soaring 90% above the historical norm, reminiscent of the pre-2008 crash levels. Reventure's forecast of a 0.5% national price decline over the next year offers a glimmer of hope, contrasting with Zillow's more pessimistic 1.9% prediction. The geographical variability in price forecasts underscores positive trends in the Midwest and Northeast, while states like Arizona, Utah, Colorado, Texas, and Florida face a bleaker outlook. For a detailed analysis of future price trends, Reventure's app provides zip code-level forecasts to empower buyers and investors with crucial insights.
