Nothing I see on home pages of LA Times, WSJ or Washington Post.

Congratulations!

1. The stablisation of CIT rates is continuing. Each year for the past several years I continue to ask myself whether the stablisation is a brief anomaly before the race to the bottom recommences. So far that is not the case, with rates even rising modestly within the OECD. 2/

Probably a good thing (homes valued far below construction cost is a recipe for blight) but not clear it isn't headed in the same direction as other cities, just later

Levels vs trends, metro vs city, etc, yes Cincinnati is still cheaper than California, but homes in Over the Rhine or Mount Adams or Covington are much much more expensive than a decade ago. Also seems to be true in historic neighborhoods of Detroit, Cleveland, Dayton, etc.

Interesting that case shiller and the median sale price continue their post-COVID divergence.

The same home is selling for more but cheaper homes are selling (maybe continued trend to cheaper suburbs / exurbs post remote work?)

Oh no, already?!

My aunt who famously can’t cook tried to make a pumpkin pie. She didn’t know what cloves were, so she put garlic cloves in it. Whole.
