Here Are The 50 US Housing Markets Already Turning Ugly

 

Plunging mortgage rates in late 2018 through 2019 wasn't enough to revive the housing market (despite the hope of 20-year homebuilder sentiment). Cracks are already starting to appear in many metro areas across the country, as a more profound slowdown could be imminent. Last week, Home Depot ruined the party and pretty much declared that a housing boom in 2020 is non-existent. The home-improvement chain cut its sales forecast for 2020, signaling that real estate and consumers could exhibit weakness in the year ahead.

 

The disappointing 2020 forecast comes amid a report that 50 housing markets across the country are already showing signs of a downturn.

 

GOBankingRates evaluated 500 metro areas for high rates of foreclosures and underwater mortgages, variations in median home listing prices, the number of days homes are on the market, and the percentage of for-sale listings with price cuts, against the national average and determined the 50 most at-risk metro areas that are already turning south.

 

GOBankingRates determined that Peoria, Illinois, is the most at-risk metro area of seeing its housing market implode. Florida had the highest amount of real estate markets that were slowing. Here's the top 5

  1. Baltimore

 

Median list price: $169,900

 

2-year price change: 17.1%

 

Percentage of underwater mortgages: 26.5%

 

Foreclosures: 1 in every 1,376 homes

 

Maryland’s largest city has had the biggest percentage increase in median home list prices over the past two years of any city on the list. However, Baltimore saw a 0.6% drop in home prices over the past year; it now has a higher percentage of homes with price cuts than most cities. And Baltimore has the third-highest percentage of underwater mortgages in this study.

 

  1. Columbus, Georgia

 

Median list price: $115,450

 

2-year price change: -10.2%

 

Percentage of underwater mortgages: 22.2%

 

Foreclosures: 1 in every 1,172 homes

 

Home prices in Columbus have dropped more than in all but two cities on this list. The percentage of underwater mortgages in this city on the Georgia-Alabama border is among the highest rates in the study. And the foreclosure rate here is double the rate nationwide.

 

  1. Portsmouth, Virginia

 

Median list price: $165,700

 

2-year price change: 1.5%

 

Percentage of underwater mortgages: 19.4%

 

Foreclosures: 1 in every 730 homes

 

This port city in southwestern Virginia has the highest foreclosure rate of any city on this list. Portsmouth also has a higher percentage of underwater mortgages than most cities in our rankings.

 

  1. Lakewood, New Jersey

 

Median list price: $252,000

 

2-year price change: -12.3%

 

Percentage of underwater mortgages: 9.4%

 

Foreclosures: 1 in every 1,187 homes

 

This city about 70 miles south of New York City has seen home prices tumble more than 12% over the past two years — the second-biggest drop among cities in GOBankingRates’ ranking. The average number of days homes stay on the market here — 135 — is twice the national average. And the foreclosure rate is twice as high as the rate nationwide.

 

  1. Peoria, Illinois

 

Median list price: $124,450

 

2-year price change: -15.9%

 

Percentage of underwater mortgages: 21%

 

Foreclosures: 1 in every 932 homes

 

Peoria claims the No. 1 spot among cities with real estate markets that are turning ugly for several reasons. This city in central Illinois has seen the biggest drop in home prices over the past two years of any city on this list. The average number of days houses are on the market and the percentage of homes for sale with price cuts are higher than the national averages. The percentage of underwater mortgages here is more than double the percentage nationwide. And the foreclosure rate is among the highest on this list.

Tried it too, same issue. Coughed moar. Plus a vape is endless and a cig has a time limit.

I couldn't get away from the liquid on your hands shit when you filled it. Went to american spirits years ago but tried to quit those with vaping-back to those.
