Mortgage rates are rising fast, the Federal Reserve is hiking interest rates, and people are starting to ask: Are we in a real estate bubble?
You can’t blame buyers, sellers, agents, and everyday consumers for wondering whether the housing market has become overhyped. After all, economists at the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas published a blog post last week detailing “growing concern that U.S. house prices are again becoming unhinged from fundamentals.”
“Unhinged from fundamentals” sounds scary. Is there a housing bubble that’s about to burst?
For now, real estate experts and economists generally aren’t concerned that the hot housing market is going to implode the way it did when the 2008 subprime mortgage crisis sparked the Great Recession. But they are sharply divided about whether there’s a real estate bubble, what could be fueling it, and the events that might signal a cooling or collapsing housing market.
