Shelly Powell+FollowHousing Market: Pause Now, Party Later?Thinking about buying or selling a home? You’re not alone if you hit pause recently—rumors of new property taxes had everyone holding their breath. But the Budget wasn’t as scary as expected: only super high-end homes (over £2 million) get a new tax, and most of us are off the hook. Expect more buyers and sellers to jump back in after the holidays, especially in pricier areas. If you’ve been waiting, 2026 could be your year! #RealEstate #housingmarket #property00Share
Denise Kemp+FollowIs the Housing Market About to Crash?Here’s your coffee break reality check: A top housing analyst says home prices could drop by up to 50%—yep, even worse than 2008. Why? Too many overpriced homes, not enough buyers, and investors starting to bail. If you’re house-hunting, patience might pay off. If you’re a homeowner, keep an eye on your home’s value and don’t panic-sell. The market’s cooling, especially in the South and Sunbelt, so expect more affordable options soon. #RealEstate #HousingMarket #MoneyTips1622Share
Denise Kemp+FollowWhy So Many Homes Are Disappearing From ZillowEver wonder why your Zillow scroll feels a little emptier? Turns out, tons of homeowners are yanking their listings instead of selling for less. With high mortgage rates and picky buyers, sellers would rather wait it out than take a lowball offer. The twist? Fewer homes for sale actually helps keep prices up, so don’t expect bargains just yet. If you’re house hunting, patience is the new money hack! #RealEstate #HousingMarket #MoneyHacks62Share
Donald Wilson+FollowMy Parents' Home Purchase Price You Won't BelieveThis was back in 1991 when they made the big move from California to Texas. The whole thing kicked off when a cousin called my mom out of the blue, telling her there was a house for sale and she absolutely had to buy it. My mom was $3,000 short, and get this – my brother's teacher actually lent her the money. It wasn't just a house either; it came with two lots. Years later, in 2009, they managed to build a big house next door, entirely with cash, for $140,000. And, my parents bought their home for just $7,000 at that time. #RealEstate #HomeOwnership #HousingMarket #Throwback #FamilyHistory #TexasLiving #AffordableHousing #PersonalFinance #Unbelievable 1196Share
megan01+FollowWhy So Many Homes Are Up for Grabs NowEver wonder why there are suddenly more 'For Sale' signs in your neighborhood? Banks have repossessed over 367,000 homes as job growth slows to its weakest in 22 years. With fewer new jobs and higher bills, more families are falling behind on payments.

Matthew Jackson+FollowWhy Houses in Florida, Texas & Cali Are SittingHeard the housing market’s cooling off in the Sun Belt? Florida, Texas, and California are leading the pack with falling home prices, especially in cities like Dallas and Oakland. The big reason? Buyers are picky and waiting for deals, while sellers don’t want to drop prices. If you’re house hunting, you’ve got more time to shop around—and maybe even score a discount if you’re patient! #RealEstate #housingmarket #realestate00Share
Aaron Ballard+FollowWhy Your Landlord Might Own 100 HomesEver wonder why it's so hard to buy a house these days? Turns out, big investors are scooping up single-family homes and renting them out, making it tougher for regular folks to buy. If you’re renting a house, you’re not alone—over 14 million households are in the same boat. The catch? These renters are scattered, making it tricky to team up and push back when landlords slack on repairs or hike rents. But some renters are getting creative, joining forces to win better deals and protections. Power in numbers, even if your neighbors are blocks away! #RealEstate #housingmarket #renters00Share
megan01+FollowWhy Are Starter Homes So Hard to Find?Ever notice how new homes in hot cities like Houston and Atlanta seem to be either massive mansions or tiny, pricey apartments? Turns out, builders are focusing on high-end buyers, leaving fewer affordable options for regular folks. If you’re dreaming of a starter home, you might have to rent longer or look at older houses. The good news? New builds are starting to shrink in size, so more budget-friendly options could be on the horizon. Keep an eye out! #RealEstate #housingmarket #realestate00Share
