Evidence The Housing Bubble Is Bursting?: "Home Sellers Slashing Prices At Fastest Rate In Over Eight Years"

But now that has completely changed, and home sellers are cutting prices at a pace that we have not seen since the last recession. In case you are wondering, this is definitely a major red flag for the economy. According to CNBC, home sellers are “slashing prices at the highest rate in at least eight years”…

  1. I didn't know we were even in a housing bubble. Who knew.
    I just think people have been waiting so long for their homes to reach 2007 highs, that they just want to sell - even if it's a little less than planned.
    Prices will plateau then rebound in the Spring.

  2. You are absolutely right. It isn't just home owners who can't sell. I see where builders are having the same problem especially in Fruitland MD.

  3. Tell that to the Coastal Association of Realtors in our area. They are charging $100,000 more per homes in nicer neighborhoods than they were a year ago.
