This data line confirms what we all know to be the case: The housing market, at least as it relates to construction, is in a recession. What I have always tried to do with my economic work is to connect the dots or show a pathway to why something could happen.

Research shows that the U.S. housing markets are cooling, with more than 25% of sellers slashing their prices this year. Rising interest rates are the main driver behind this downturn. Despite this, some housing markets remain as hot as ever, with home buyers clamoring for real estate in these growing cities. California has vanished from most lists of places to invest in real estate, while the easterly sunbelt states continue to draw the crowds.

Fast-rising home prices and interest rates coupled with a slipping economy helped to cool the nation’s housing market in June leading to a nearly 2% increase in the number of homes on the market. That marks the first month since July 2019 (pre-pandemic) that housing inventory increased year over year. The home-inventory bump dovetails with other data indicating the nation’s housing market lost some steam this past month, according to a June housing-market report from Seattle-based Redfin.

The Federal Reserve hiked rates 0.75% on Wednesday, which was mostly expected by market participants before the announcement. The question is, will the Fed keep aggressively hiking rates if the economic data worsens? I say this because I’ve raised all but one of my six recession red flags. I need to wait for one more report to officially raise the last flag, but it is certain to happen in August.

In my 27 years as an agent and coach, I have never seen inventory this low. Many agents who work predominantly with buyers grumble that they have too many buyers and not enough listings to show them. Listing agents are not meeting their goals, and some are struggling to make ends meet. Low inventory is a lose-lose for real estate agents and buyers. Imagine if you could tap into a pool of hidden listing inventory that nobody else knows about.
