8% Of US Housing Markets
Declined Qtr-Over-Qtr

 
Currently, 33 markets (8% of all U.S. real estate) experienced ‘real’ (inflation adjusted) declines in property values compared to the prior Quarter.

For the same period last year 58 markets (14%) saw Q-O-Q declines.

Note: Because of seasonal variations between quarters, it’s best to compare Q-O-Q changes to the ‘year ago’ period rather than the immediately preceding quarter.

It was a BIZARRE quarter for home price appreciation!

This is the most volatile (and exciting) time for real estate markets I’ve ever seen.

Fortunes will be made or lost in the coming quarters; some markets will do amazingly well; some are already circling the drain.

If you’re not presently a paid HousingAlerts member, I strongly encourage you to invest the $29 and see exactly what’s happening in YOUR market.

These are not normal times.

Investors need to pay close attention.

If you can’t afford the $29, then AT LEAST grab your free state-level account here. (You can track all 50 states and we update them quarterly for you at no charge).

I think we’re near the end of “Pandemic Effect: Phase I” (where housing inventory dried-up) and the start of “Pandemic Effect: Phase II” (the de-urbanization of certain metro markets).

The only accurate way to analyze and anticipate these local real estate market moves, especially in times like this, is with Technical Analysis (TA) and HousingAlerts.

‘Market Psychology’ will decide which markets are winners or losers, and only TA can track that driving force.

(See the entire list of declining markets below.)

Changes in Market Breadth can act as early indicators for changes in the market cycle.

Here’s what the 4-period Quarter-Over-Quarter Advance-Decline
chart looks like for ALL U.S. Real Estate Markets...

Advance-Decline Momentum Indicator vs Home Price Appreciation Chart Quarter-Over-Quarter Data 2-Period Average

The BLUE line is the inflation adjusted overall appreciation rate for the average of all U.S. real estate markets (as read from the right axis).

The RED line is the percentage of all U.S. real estate markets that have increased in value on a quarter-over-quarter basis, averaged over the last 4 quarters (as read from the left axis).

As with all Quarterly vs. Annual comparisons, you’ll see more variance with shorter time frames. It’s common for this red line to fluctuate up and down.

This A-D Indicator can also be used on State and Regional levels for more granular insights. PRO level members can customize this indicator by logging in and visiting the ‘Advance-Decline’ tool.

There seems to be a war between all the talking heads and real estate gurus out there about which direction the market is headed.

Half the so-called experts are still calling for a massive market crash. It’s the same Chicken Little blabber they’ve been pushing for years.

Now they’re pointing to all the forbearance properties hitting the market as the next big reason for home prices to fall.

Seems they never run out of reasons to call for a crash, but practically never get it right.

In the other corner, we have the eternal market bulls who’ve been predicting an endless up cycle for real estate because of inventory shortages, low rates, rising Millennial demand and now, the “virtual office” paradigm shift with ‘everyone’ setting up home offices and moving into lower priced, more appealing suburbs and beyond.

These major fundamental jolts can and do impact the price of real estate on a market-by-market basis, but trying to GUESS what the impact will be on ANY local market is the wrong approach.

For example, If the ‘zoom effect’ sticks around post-pandemic, we may very well see a migration out of big, expensive real estate markets. If and when that happens, you’ll be the first to see WHICH MARKETS get hit, and which might benefit – from inside HousingAlerts.

Likewise, for any forbearance-induced foreclosure spikes, you’ll see them coming from a mile away inside HousingAlerts!

HousingAlerts is the most accurate LOCAL real estate market analytics on the planet, for 15 years running.

If your markets are on this list, DON’T panic!
