Look at the sales volume drop. There are always going to be sales. There were still sales in '07/'08 even though the collapse was already starting. Real estate is not like selling a stock. Plus, there are always "must sell" sellers for death, BK, taxes, divorce, etc. If you look at listing volumes, those remained pretty tight for the past couple of years which meant, if you were selling you could still get a high price. Look at the inventory levels by year. Now we are at high prices, rapidly increasing inventory and 6.5% rates. It will be tough for prices to remain high going forward unless there is another orchestrated decline in rates. I would guess sub 5% could save the real estate market.
