Rhea-AI Summary

Zillow's latest data reveals a cooling rental market, with 33.2% of rental listings offering concessions in July 2024, up from 25.4% a year earlier. This trend is driven by an apartment construction boom, with June seeing the highest number of completed multifamily units in 50 years. Rent growth has slowed to 5.1% year-over-year, a significant decrease from the 22.3% increase in the previous two years.

Six major metro areas, including Raleigh, Charlotte, and Atlanta, have over 50% of rentals offering concessions. The rental vacancy rate remains at 6.6%, the highest since winter 2021. While the supply boom continues, the number of units under construction has decreased for eight consecutive months, suggesting a potential peak in the market.

Rhea-AI Summary

Zillow's latest analysis reveals that luxury home values are outpacing typical home appreciation for the first time in years. The typical luxury home in the U.S. is now worth about $1,620,000, with values up 3.9% year-over-year, compared to 3.2% for typical homes. This trend reversal is attributed to luxury buyers being less affected by higher mortgage rates and often able to pay in cash.

Key findings include:

  • Luxury home inventory is 46.9% below pre-pandemic levels, a larger deficit than the overall market
  • Richmond has the hottest luxury market, with values up 16.5% year-over-year
  • Austin is the only major market where luxury home values have declined
  • 20.8% of luxury listings experienced a price cut in June, compared to 24.5% of all listings

Rhea-AI Summary

A Zillow analysis reveals that the number of U.S. cities with $1 million starter homes has nearly tripled since 2019, rising from 84 to 237. California leads with 117 such cities, followed by New York (31) and New Jersey (21). Nationwide, the typical starter home is worth $196,611, but values have grown 54.1% over the past five years, outpacing the 49.1% increase for the typical U.S. home.

This trend has delayed first-time home purchases, with the median age of first-time buyers increasing to 35. The New York City metro area has the most cities (48) with million-dollar starter homes, followed by San Francisco (44) and Los Angeles (35). Markets with restrictive building regulations tend to have more cities with high-priced starter homes and lower homeownership rates.

Rhea-AI Summary

A new analysis by Zillow reveals that to comfortably afford a typical U.S. home, a buyer earning the median income needs to put down $127,750, or 35.4%. This is significantly higher than five years ago when no down payment was necessary due to lower home values and mortgage rates. This increase highlights how the pandemic and rising mortgage rates have affected housing affordability. Around 43% of last year's buyers used financial gifts for their down payments, the highest since 2018. While many U.S. markets remain unaffordable, places like Pittsburgh offer more accessible housing options without a significant down payment.
