May Housing Inventory shows some improvement
There has been a sharp, seasonal increase in the number of properties for sale in the last two months, but this only brings the available inventory back to around last year’s levels and well below that of 2020:
Single Family Homes
Condos
The number of Condos available has also jumped, but in this case still remains below year ago levels:
Why This Housing Market Is Not a Bubble Ready To Pop
According to this report from Keeping Current Matters the major reason for the housing crash 15 years ago was a tsunami of foreclosures. With much stricter mortgage standards and a historic level of homeowner equity, the fear of massive foreclosures impacting today’s market is not realistic.
Homeownership has become a major element in achieving the American Dream. A recent report from the National Association of Realtors (NAR) finds that over 86% of buyers agree homeownership is still the American Dream.
Prior to the 1950s, less than half of the country owned their own home. However, after World War II, many returning veterans used the benefits afforded by the GI Bill to purchase a home. Since then, the percentage of homeowners throughout the country has increased to the current rate of 65.5%. That strong desire for homeownership has kept home values appreciating ever since. The graph below tracks home price appreciation since the end of World War II:
