Aug 9, 2022 As Las Vegas new home builders back off on the number of spec homes they’re building (started without a buyer lined up) they’re starting to offload nearly completed homes for below market. In turn this brings down the value of existing nearby homes with it. They’re also upping the offered commission to buyer’s agents – as high as 4 and even 5% in some cases. That’s tough to match for private home sellers as well.

“Did the San Diego housing market just crash ?”
The older neighborhoods still have many these stucco 3/1 with a narrow detached garage way in the backyard, and I’m sure these recent owners are mortgaged to their eye teeth and don’t have any financial cushion; they’ll buckle, again. People with money want modern energy efficient homes with a heat pump system and a garage wide enough to park the car and open the door enough to exit without holding your breath.
4S Ranch has those homes but they come with hefty Mello-Roos and HOA fees.
And, the homes take up most (90%?) of the lot.
I’m still laughing about that one from yesterday where the 1 acre lot was valued at 3/4 million. Things don’t even grow on their own there. Insane.
1 acre lot was valued at 3/4 million
I looked at this lot years ago. It sold for $620K on 1/26/2021.
‘After report upon report on the national housing shortage, at last the tides have turned: According to last month’s data, the inventory of active listings across America increased more than 30% since 2021 — a record-high growth rate. ‘
‘That’s according to Realtor.com’s July housing market trends report, which further found that July marked the third consecutive month of unprecedented inventory growth rates. ‘
“Nationally, the inventory of homes actively for sale on a typical day in July increased by 30.7% over the past year, the largest increase in inventory in the data history and higher than last month’s growth rate of 18.7% which was itself record-breaking,” the July report notes. In terms of listing numbers, this means that potential buyers saw 176,000 more homes when searching last month than they would have in 2021.”
“With inventories increasing, buyers will have more negotiating power,” Realtor’s chief economist, Danielle Hale, told Bloomberg, adding that pandemic advantages are now a thing of the past for homeowners. “The two years of a market heavily tipped in favor of sellers appears to be in the rearview mirror.”
‘Mortgage lender Celebrity Home Loans shut down its correspondent channel and laid off employees on Tuesday. Amid a market downturn, the company has decided to focus on the retail lending business.’
“As one of the few retail lenders that saw production grow from Q1 to Q2, we’ve decided to keep our focus on our greatest strength: retail lending,” David Robnett, chairman and CEO, wrote in a statement. “Unfortunately, that meant the correspondent lending channel we were beta testing came to a close yesterday, affecting 10 of our team members.”
“Buy before you sell” firm Homeward has laid off roughly 20% of its workforce, according to a letter from CEO Tim Heyl to employees sent on Wednesday. Despite recording what Heyl calls the firm’s “strongest month ever” in May and solid second quarter results, Heyl said the market shift was more sudden than anticipated, forcing the firm to make cuts.’
“Meeting the moment sometimes requires a business to evolve,” Heyl wrote. “Despite having a strong financial start to the year, we are currently staffed for more growth than we’re now forecasting. This reduction today is necessary for our future success, but that doesn’t make it easier to part with so many of our colleagues.” “We don’t know how long real estate will continue to soften, so we must plan for a less active market,” he wrote.’
“Homeward said it is offering laid off employees tenure-based severance pay and two months of COBRA health insurance benefits. In addition, the firm is offering impacted employees access to outplacement services through the company’s recruiting team and removing non-compete clauses for impacted employees.”
That’s generous of them, but the impacted who will survive likely have a college degree and other skills.
Housing….. It’s cratering.
