US Home Buyer Demand Plummets: Housing Market Bubble Looms

Reventure Consulting reveals a staggering drop in US home buyer demand, sending shockwaves through the housing market. Mortgage applications have nosedived by a whopping 63% from their pandemic peak, painting a grim picture of empty open houses and slashed prices ahead. Despite some initial price dips in certain states, the overall housing market remains perched on the edge of the biggest bubble in history. The Federal Reserve's attempts to lower mortgage rates have backfired spectacularly, with rates soaring to 7.26%, leaving buyers high and dry.
This economic rollercoaster has left the Fed seemingly powerless, as interest rates spiral out of control, defying all predictions. Mortgage applications are plummeting compared to previous years, leading to a surge in the number of days houses languish on the market, notably in states like Florida. The once red-hot price growth is cooling off, with some markets even witnessing negative growth. Americans now require a staggering annual income of $110,000 to even think about qualifying for a mortgage, highlighting the stark lack of affordability plaguing the housing sector.
The prevailing sentiment in the housing market is one of pessimism, with a majority of Americans deeming it a bad time to buy due to exorbitant prices. Historical data underscores the gravity of the situation, showing that home prices, adjusted for inflation, have skyrocketed to unprecedented levels. While income growth may offer some respite in 2025, the real salvation lies in plummeting prices rather than wage hikes. Reventure Consulting's forecasts paint a bleak picture for states like Florida, Texas, and Colorado, where supply-demand dynamics are tilting in favor of buyers. However, caution is advised, as neighborhood-level disparities can significantly impact price trajectories.
