App摘要:雖然美國房地產市場依舊是賣方市場,但情況顯然稍有改變。有更多住房掛牌上市,但競購戰的數量卻大幅減少。盡管如此,Zillow的預測模型顯示,購房人不應該指望會出現價格回調。
雖然美國房地產市場依舊是賣方市場,但情況顯然稍有改變。有更多住房掛牌上市,但競購戰的數量卻大幅減少。
盡管如此,Zillow的預測模型顯示,購房人不應該指望會出現價格回調。
在線房地產交易平臺Zillow預測,未來12個月,美國房價將上漲11.7%。雖然漲價的速度有所減慢(過去12個月,普通住房的房價上漲了17.7%),但買不起房的購房人并不會因此感到安心。畢竟,盡管目前就業市場火爆,但大部分工作者明年不會有機會加薪11%。
Zillow經濟學家克里斯·格林告訴《財富》雜志:“房價上漲很難預測,但我們預計房價的上漲速度較歷史最高水平會有所放緩?!?Zillow形容房地產市場只是從“白熱化”變成了“火爆”。
為什么Zillow預測房價會繼續上漲?格林認為原因是“依舊供不應求”。
正如《財富》之前所報道的那樣,在當前這五年,絕大多數千禧一代(1989年至1993年出生)將進入30歲,大部分人在這個年齡段會開始買房。市場并沒有為千禧一代購房者的大量增加做好準備:經過十年房地產危機之后,建筑商在2010年之后的十年間變得小心翼翼。據房利美(Freddie Mac)統計,這導致美國存在約400萬套房屋缺口。
不止于此:新冠疫情對房地產市場產生了影響,例如經濟衰退導致的低抵押貸款利率,而居家辦公趨勢令購房人可以深入郊區尋找目標,這些影響仍未消失,并使房地產市場持續火爆。雖然房屋庫存再次增加,但依舊遠低于疫情之前的水平,并且無法滿足當前的需求。這意味著房價會繼續上漲。
這一點毫無疑問:Zillow的預測非常樂觀。但依舊高于其他房地產公司的預測。CoreLogic預測,未來12個月,美國房價僅會上漲2.2%。約翰·伯恩斯房地產咨詢公司(John Burns Real Estate Consulting)和房利美預測,2022日歷年的房價漲幅分別為4%和5.3%。
我們還是要強調預測房價上漲的難度。在疫情之初,CoreLogic預測2020年4月至2021年4月房價將下跌1.3%。當時個別州曾臨時禁止現場看房,而且失業率上升到接近15%。Zillow預測同期房價將下跌2%至3%。當然,他們的預測與實際情況相去甚遠:在新冠疫情期間,美國經歷了史上最緊張、競爭最激烈的房地產市場。(財富中文網)

While the housing market is still very much a seller’s market, things are clearly shifting a bit. More homes are coming on the market, and we’ve seen a big decline in the number of bidding wars.
That said, buyers shouldn’t pencil in a price correction, according to Zillow’s forecast model.
Over the next 12 months, Zillow, an online real estate marketplace, is forecasting an 11.7% appreciation in U.S. home values. While that would mark a slowdown in appreciation—over the past 12 months the typical home has increased 17.7% in value—it would hardly be a relief for priced-out homebuyers. After all, even in this strong labor market, most workers won’t get anything close to an 11% raise next year.
“Home price appreciation is difficult to forecast, but we expect home price growth to slow down from historic highs,” Chris Glynn, an economist at Zillow, tells Fortune. Zillow describes the housing market as transitioning from “white hot” to just “red hot.”
Why does Zillow expect home prices to continue rising? Glynn points to “demand still outpacing supply.”
As Fortune has previously reported, we’re in the middle of the five-year period during which the largest chunk of millennials, those born between 1989 and 1993, are hitting their thirties—the age when first-time homebuying really kicks into gear. The market just wasn’t ready for this influx: After the aughts housing crisis, builders played it safe during the 2010 decade. As a result, the nation is under-built by around 4 million homes, according to Freddie Mac.
That’s not all: The effects of COVID-19 on the housing market—recession-induced low mortgage rates coupled with the work-from-home trend allowing buyers to search deeper into the burbs—are still at play and driving the housing market forward. While inventory is rising again, it’s still well below pre-pandemic levels and simply unable to meet the current demand. Cue higher prices.
There’s no doubt about it: This forecast by Zillow is very bullish. But it’s also a bit of an outlier when compared with other real estate firms’ outlooks. Over the coming 12 months, CoreLogic forecasts only a 2.2% jump in U.S. home prices. For the 2022 calendar year, John Burns Real Estate Consulting and Freddie Mac are forecasting home price growth of 4% and 5.3%, respectively.
We should also emphasize how hard it is to forecast home price growth. At the onset of the pandemic—which saw some states temporarily ban in-person real estate viewings while the unemployment rate soared to nearly 15%—CoreLogic forecast that between April 2020 and April 2021 home prices would fall 1.3%. For that same period, Zillow forecast that prices would fall 2% to 3%. Of course, they weren’t even close: The housing market during the COVID-19 pandemic has been among the tightest and most competitive in U.S. history.
