Debunking the 'Silent Depression' Narrative | 1-Minute Market Update w/ Martin Perdomo

Could the whispers of a 'silent depression' circulating on TikTok hold a kernel of truth about America's economic state, or are they seeds of misinformation? We tackle this head-on, examining the U.S. real estate market's pulse with hard data on mortgage applications, home sales, and interest rates. But we don't stop there; we also scrutinize the broader economic landscape through the discerning eyes of Columbia Business School Economics Professor Brett House, challenging the gloom with a dose of historical perspective and facts. This episode peels back the layers of the housing market's complexities, offering insights into trends that signal stabilization and dissect the ties between interest rates, affordability, and buying activity. As we juxtapose the American real estate scenario with the tumultuous tides in China's property sector, you'll gain a rich understanding of global market influences. Join us for a nuanced narrative that cuts through the chatter, distinguishing economic fact from fiction, and shaping an informed view on where the U.S. stands today.This episode is brought to you by Skilled Property Finders - Home of the 21 Day Close!We will close on your property in 21 days or less OR we'll pay an additional $5,000.
