@mikesimonsen @AltosResearch Happy birthday 🎉🎊🎂 @mikesimonsen

[Mike Simonsen 🐉 @mikesimonsen]

Homebuyers are defying expectations. And sellers are not eager to sell.

Available inventory of single family homes for sale dropped by 3% this week to only 443k

46% fewer homes on the market than in 2019

We cover all the details in this week's @AltosResearch video 📽️🧵👇

Remember, with housing, total housing cost vs. real wages at the owner's age is more critical than the mortgage rate lock theory. We had this issue before Covid19 even hit us

I sold newspaper subscriptions 🚪 to 🚪when I was 12 from 5-8pm every night and hustled Pokémon cards by day to my classmates. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Many entrepreneurs started a business at a very young age.

For me it was 7th grade, where I learned how to make hand-made wooden pens in wood shop class.

Sold them to local gift shops for $20.

What about you?

Continuing Claims, or those that continue to receive benefits after their initial claim, rose 38,000 to 1.69M…the most since the third week of December.

[TheGoingRates @TheGoingRates]

Initial Jobless Claims, which measures individuals filing for unemployment benefits for the first time, rose 13,000 to 196,000 and was just above estimates, but still remains beneath 200,000.

Homeownership creates a lasting legacy that you can pass down to future generations, providing them with a foundation for their own futures. #Homeownership #TheAmericanDream

[TheGoingRates @TheGoingRates]

Homeownership can lead to increased tax benefits, as mortgage interest & property taxes are deductible.

[TheGoingRates @TheGoingRates]

Homeownership provides a sense of stability & community. You can build roots in a neighborhood & create memories that will last a lifetime.

We might only be a few weeks into 2023, but these first weeks have been rich with informative data. We’re already seeing signals for what the housing market will look like this spring and beyond. Check out @mikesimonsen's take on what to expect in 2023. https://t.co/U1bz72ap01
