<p>Here we go again – homeowners are pulling their properties off the market rather than dropping prices, creating a housing deadlock that&#39;s making everyone scratch their heads. With 38% more delistings since the start of 2025 and sellers sitting pretty on their 2-3% mortgage rates, they&#39;re basically telling buyers &quot;take it or leave it.&quot; Meanwhile, thanks to the Biden-era housing price explosion and the &quot;transitory&quot; inflation that&#39;s still hanging around like a bad houseguest, first-time buyers are priced out of starter homes that somehow cost $1-2 million. Remember when they told us all that government spending would reduce inflation? How&#39;s that working out? We&#39;re still dealing with the aftermath of dumping trillions into an overheated market while being told it was all temporary. Is anyone surprised that mortgage rates are stuck above 6% when we&#39;re still cooling off from that inflation bonfire? What&#39;s it going to take – a good old-fashioned recession – to get this market moving again? Drop a comment and let me know what you think happens next.
