“50% Price Cuts!” and Other Outrageous Housing Crash Clickbait w/Jeb Smith


Listen Later

Ever seen those YouTube videos titled “A housing crash is coming THIS year!” or “Prices are falling 50% in *insert state*”? If so, you’re not alone. There’s so much housing market clickbait being thrown at you daily that it’s hard to distinguish the actual data from the “expert takes” only done for clicks. So today, we’re breaking down some of the most hyped housing market takes from YouTube, examining the data they’re using, and giving our thoughts.

To join us is Jeb Smith, a real estate broker associate with over 18 years of experience and a fellow YouTuber who’s just as tired as we are of the constant “crash bros” populating your YouTube homepage.

Together, Dave and Jeb are breaking down a couple of recent videos, one talking about the “50% price cuts in California” and a “major housing crash,” as well as one video anticipating that “all hell breaks loose” come this December (wait, isn’t it December already?)

Together, our goal is to ensure you never get fooled by easily manipulated data so you can make the best investing decisions.


In This Episode We Cover

The “major housing crash” coming to California and whether there’s truth in this

Why one real estate media channel thinks all hell will break loose soon 

Demystifying the data behind the real estate “crash bros” on YouTube

Whether Jeb believes home prices will rise (or fall) in the coming year

Housing market data that WE trust to make our real estate predictions, forecasts, and investing decisions

And So Much More!
