🔥🏠 Uh oh. The FED is expected to raise rates by .75 or 1.0 basis points during the live show, home builders are not building, home buyers are not buying, sellers are not listing, is the real estate market grinding to a halt due to an economic recession? Or is this an economic depression? How bad is this going to get??

June sales plummet from May, mortgage demand drops to 22 year low! Home builder sentiment is down again, & the NAR cheif economist says interest rates could "catapult" due to the FED inflation policy! Is the housing market done??

Homebuyers are canceling deals!! Is this a Housing PANIC? US inflation rose 9.1% in June, what does that mean for real estate? Application volume drops & markets are cooling fast. Has the inventory increase killed real estate?

We see a rapid rise in mortgage rates that stall out but do not lead to an increase in mortgage applicaitons. We see new home costs rising but inventory being added by the thousands. 50% price cuts might be misleading and is AZ out of water? Then we dive into the Realtor® commission lawsuit once again.
