The U.S. Housing Market Is Officially BROKEN (May 2025 Update)

Prices Are Up, Inventory’s Down, and No One Can Afford a House?! It’s May 2025… and the U.S. housing market looks like it was designed by a mad scientist. In this episode, I break down what’s actually happening in real estate right now — and it’s wilder than a Zillow listing with no interior photos. Mortgage rates are hovering near “don’t-even-ask” territory, home prices are still flexing like it’s 2021, and good luck finding anything that’s not either a teardown or $400k overpriced. Here’s what you’ll hear: Why Gen Z can’t buy, Boomers won’t sell, and Millennials are just… tired. The secret reason prices aren’t dropping (hint: it’s not what TikTok’s telling you). Housing starts are down. Inventory’s a joke. And don’t even get me started on rent. Oh, and you’re not crazy — it really is the worst time in modern history to buy a house. BUT I also talk about what’s coming next — and yeah, there’s a twist. If you’re a buyer, seller, investor, or just someone who checks Redfin like it’s Instagram, this episode is for you.
