There has been entirely too much talk of a housing bubble. This is an entirely different market than we ever had before, I lived through the previous 2 bubble pops and the data just is not hinting at a pop at all and here is why:
- Peak Housing inventory was in 2007 with 3.7 Million units available.
- Average inventory in the country is 2.5 Million
- Current inventory 1.28 million units and we have 12 million more households in the country since 2007.
- Average age of a first time buyer: 33. Look back 33yrs ago we had a baby boom that continues for YEARS to com
- the most recent bubble pop was 2007(ish) in the early 1970s we saw a huge drop in birth rates that lasted for years. The combination of too much inventory and a drop off in available buyers is what popped that bubble
It is going to take a long time for inventory to meet the demand.
