That has been a popular strawman from housing bulls to make their projections of infinite growth look more sane though.

Are there still people here expecting home prices to drop to 2019 levels?

I'd take either home prices or interest rates dropping at this point

If you drop interest rates homes prices will come down because of increased competition

I think lower rates and the resulting increase in competition will cause house

Increasing competition normally reduces pricing

Lowering interest rates increases demand (buyers) thereby increasing prices.

That's what I'm thinking. Lots of people are wanting to buy but can't afford it

Historically rate cuts are followed by falling home prices.

If the fed believed that they would have dropped rates already. I agree lower

Can we make a compromise and just drop interest rates to 2019 levels instead?
