Deep dives

Inventory Decline Dictated the Housing Market in 2023

The big story in the housing market in 2023 was the decline in inventory levels, which surprisingly held prices relatively steady despite higher interest rates. However, the housing affordability has worsened, reaching its lowest level since the 1980s. It is unlikely that supply will significantly improve in 2024, as factors like the lock-in effect and low construction rates persist. The housing market is expected to be driven by stable interest rates, and the hope is that housing volume will increase, leading to less focus on the Federal Reserve's actions.
