Rhea-AI Summary
Redfin (RDFN) reports a significant shift in the U.S. housing market towards buyers' favor, with only 28% of homes selling above asking price, down from 32% a year ago and marking the lowest springtime level since 2020. The median sale price of $397,000 represents a 7% discount from the median list price of $425,950. Pending home sales have decreased 1.1% year-over-year, while new listings are up 5.2%. The market shows clear signs of buyer negotiating power, with homes taking longer to sell and mortgage rates near 7%. Despite challenging affordability conditions, with the median monthly housing payment just $29 below its record high, buyers have opportunities to negotiate better deals and concessions from sellers. The market shift is particularly pronounced in cities like San Jose, Anaheim, and Oakland, which saw the largest declines in above-asking sales.

Rhea-AI Summary
Redfin (RDFN) reports that median U.S. asking rents declined 1% year-over-year to $1,633 in May 2025, marking a significant shift in the rental market. The decline is observed in 28 of 44 major metros - the highest number since September 2023. This trend is primarily driven by elevated apartment supply, with multifamily construction near 50-year highs. Austin experienced the largest decline (-8.8% YoY) to $1,385, while Cincinnati saw the biggest increase (7.4% YoY) to $1,460. The rental vacancy rate for buildings with five or more units reached 8.2% in Q1 2025, and less than half of new apartments are being rented within three months. The report also highlights that typical U.S. homebuyers now need to earn $50,000 more than renters to afford monthly housing payments, leading many Americans to continue renting rather than buying.

News
Rhea-AI Summary
Redfin reports a record-breaking $698 billion worth of homes for sale in the U.S., marking a 20.3% increase from the previous year. The surge is attributed to growing inventory, slowing demand, and rising home prices. Housing supply has reached a 5-year high, with new listings up 8.6% to a 3-year high. The typical home now takes 40 days to sell, 5 days longer than last year. Notably, 44% of listings ($331 billion worth) have been on the market for 60+ days, the highest April share since 2020. This contrasts sharply with January 2022's record low of $309 billion in total inventory value. Redfin's head of economics research, Chen Zhao, predicts a 1% decline in home prices by year-end due to rising inventory and weakened demand.

Rhea-AI Summary
Redfin (RDFN) reports that only 49% of newly constructed apartments in Q4 2024 were rented within three months, marking the fifth consecutive quarter below 50% absorption rate. The rental vacancy rate hit 8.2% in Q1 2025, the highest since early 2021. Nearly 125,000 new apartments were completed in Q4 2024, the second-highest on record, following Q3's record of 142,900 units. This supply surge has created favorable conditions for renters, with asking rents declining slightly. Larger units (3+ bedrooms) showed the highest absorption rate at 53%, while 1 and 2-bedroom units were at 44%. Despite current market conditions favoring renters, multifamily construction permits have decreased to pre-pandemic levels, suggesting future supply constraints may lead to higher rents.

Rhea-AI Summary
Redfin (RDFN) reports that housing costs remain near record highs, with the median monthly mortgage payment reaching $2,860, just $25 below the all-time high and up 3.6% year over year. The high costs are attributed to elevated mortgage rates at 6.86% and a 1.9% increase in median home sale prices.
However, relief appears to be on the horizon as home prices are declining in 11 of the 50 largest metro areas, led by Oakland (-4.9%), Dallas (-4.5%), and Jacksonville (-3%). Redfin economists forecast price declines by the end of 2025. The market shows signs of shifting in buyers' favor, with new listings up 3.9% and total inventory up 11.9% year over year. Notably, about 14% of pending deals are being canceled, the highest rate since the pandemic's start.
Buyers are gaining negotiating power as sellers become more flexible, offering price reductions and concessions, particularly for properties that have been listed for extended periods.Rhea-AI Impact
