Episode #1335 Join the Future of Real Estate Investing with Fundrise. Start with as little as $10: https://fundrise.com/pockets *More homes are for sale now than any time in the past six years.* Mortgage *rates* just shot up to above *7%* with no relief in sight. Markets are seeing *(substantial) price cuts,* and there could be much more to come this winter. So, *is a crash on the way,* or is this lukewarm correction simply becoming something stronger than we had imagined? In this *September 2026 housing market update,* we’ll cover it all! First, we’ll talk about the *massive change in mortgage rates* this month, what’s caused it, and whether any relief is on the horizon. If rates stay high and more buyers are booted from the market, sellers will need to act—that means *price cuts, concessions, and negotiating power* for the buyers that remain. But will this turn into a full-blown crash, or are there too many macroeconomic legs propping up the housing market? *Dave* gives his full *risk report* and shares *where he thinks interest rates could end up* hovering. Plus, the tactic he’s using to *get 10%, 15%, or even 20% off real estate deals* while sellers have their backs against the wall.
