Housing Market on a Precarious Path

According to CNBC, the numbers aren’t looking very promising. June was a tough month for home sales, both new and existing. In fact, the sale of newly built homes fell to its lowest level since last year.

Not surprisingly, mortgage applications have also fallen as mortgage rates continue to climb. Combine that with a tighter than usual housing market and it’s easy to understand the slump.

In Denver, once a robust housing market, sales declined by 5.5 percent in June.

Lack of affordability is the driving factor here as home prices have skyrocketed. As a result, more people are looking into single-family home rentals.
