The median asking rent price fell 2.1% year-over-year just after breaking above $2,000/month.
Meanwhile, housing starts skyrocketed by 14.8% in November to their highest level since May 2022.
These numbers have yet to account for the 100+ basis point drop in interest rates from their peak.
The "Fed pivot" is spreading into housing.

The Rust Belt.
Hartford, Rochester, New Haven, and Milwaukee have all seen 8% appreciation since the bubble peaked in mid-2022.
Now who saw that coming?

In October, US pending home sales fell 1.5% putting sales down 6.6% over the last year.
This also marks the 23rd STRAIGHT decline in US pending home sales.
To put this in perspective, pending home sales are more than 10% BELOW what they were in 2010.
They are also ~3% below the pandemic low when the global economy was in a lockdown.
All as mortgage demand is at its lowest levels since 1994.
The housing market is coming to a complete halt...

At first, this seems like great news, but it really just emphasizes how unaffordable this market is.
Currently, a record ~35% of housing market transactions are all cash purchases.
In other words, this market is becoming only affordable for those who are buying with cash.
As interest rates hit 20-year highs and home prices are up 30%+ since 2020, affordability is only getting worse.
We have an affordability crisis.
