I Interviewed A Housing Market Analyst, This Is What I Learned

Here’s my latest deep-dive video: a candid conversation with housing market analyst Kevin Erdmann (erdmann.substack.com) on what’s really driving today’s U.S. housing market.

Kevin brings a data-first lens to prices, rents, mortgage rates, and the supply squeeze, and we dig into how those forces show up on the ground for buyers and sellers. We also talk about why the lower end of the market feels the worst of the affordability crunch, how lending and building cycles shape inventory, and what to watch this fall as rates and demand shift.

In this interview, you’ll hear us cover:

• What rising and falling rates actually do to sales and prices

• Why supply remains tight even as demand cools

• The gap between entry-level inventory and what builders can profitably deliver

• Practical takeaways for buyers and sellers navigating the next few months

Whether you’re a homeowner, an active buyer or seller, or a real estate pro, you’ll walk away with a clearer view of the numbers behind the headlines—and how to use them in your next decision.

If you find it helpful, share it with someone who’s trying to make sense of this market. And if you’re in Tallahassee and want to discuss how these trends affect your plans, reach out—I’m glad to help.
