00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,800
Welcome back to Trust the Process,

2
00:00:02,800 --> 00:00:04,740
podcast that takes you behind the scenes

3
00:00:04,740 --> 00:00:06,800
of real estate construction.

4
00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:10,920
And New Home's, this is the second half of our year end wrap up,

5
00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:12,720
but we are in the back 2024,

6
00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:14,880
and now we're moving into 2025,

7
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:16,760
and some of the things that have happened there.

8
00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:18,920
In our 2024 episode,

9
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:21,040
we talked a little bit more on a national scale,

10
00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:23,720
bringing it back home to the Vegas market now,

11
00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:26,640
though we have listeners who are in other areas.

12
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:28,640
In this particular episode,

13
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:29,920
we're gonna talk specifically

14
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:32,040
about the Vegas market and how some of those national trends

15
00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:35,320
from 2024 have carried over into what we imagine

16
00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:37,080
will happen over the next 12 months.

17
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:40,520
Exactly, I think we can use Las Vegas as a microcosm

18
00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:42,920
for a lot of growing Sunbelt cities,

19
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:45,720
because although the exact numbers might be different,

20
00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:47,360
the trends are largely the same.

21
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:49,360
Then as we mentioned in our last episode,

22
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:53,640
there are national factors that do kind of mold our market,

23
00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:55,720
migration, people leaving the Northeastern Sea

24
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:58,320
where people leaving kind of the denser cities

25
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:01,360
for suburbia, and when they're making those moves

26
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:03,160
a lot of times they're moving to other states.

27
00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:06,600
They're coming from California to Nevada to Arizona to Texas.

28
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:08,960
They're coming from New York to North Carolina

29
00:01:08,960 --> 00:01:11,240
to Georgia to Atlanta and Atlanta Metro,

30
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:13,200
and then a lot of the Metro Apollots

31
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:14,520
and subromanaries in Florida.

32
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:15,960
Those markets are Las Vegas,

33
00:01:15,960 --> 00:01:18,560
and the numbers are going to be very different,

34
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:19,960
but the trends are there,

35
00:01:19,960 --> 00:01:21,960
and the factors that affect those trends are there.

36
00:01:21,960 --> 00:01:24,960
So last episode, we talked about stubbornly high rates,

37
00:01:24,960 --> 00:01:27,400
as I look forward into 2025.

38
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:30,080
I see six as again.

39
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:35,080
I don't foresee substantial drops in the 30 year fixed mortgage rate.

40
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:36,880
That'll be enough to really move the needle

41
00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:39,160
on affordability and where we could call ourselves

42
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:41,040
being in a low rate environment.

43
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:44,560
And for context, if you look at the 30 year fixed mortgage

44
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:48,520
came out in the early 70s, and if you average the rate

45
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:50,760
over all those 50 some years,

46
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:52,560
you come up with a rate in the five.

47
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:56,200
So people will say, oh, in my day, the rates were 14% and 15%.

48
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:59,400
Yes, but that was as short lived as our 2% rates were.

49
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:01,520
That was a very small area under the curve.

50
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,760
So yes, we can acknowledge that.

51
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:04,680
We're different than they were,

52
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:05,560
a symbol of the loans.

53
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:06,640
Oh, no, carries.

54
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,320
I mean, a lot of times you buy land contract

55
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:14,320
and homes were as a multiplier of income so much cheaper.

56
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:16,440
And they hate to use the word, but they were,

57
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,440
they were arguably more affordable.

58
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:21,440
And more affordable when you say cheap,

59
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:25,000
I mean, it building standards have been so much of a year.

60
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,040
Which has led to inflating costs.

61
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,200
And when they say they don't go homes like they used to,

62
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:31,760
that is an absolute load.

63
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:33,200
Right, in a good way.

64
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:35,720
First of all, just the amount of inspections,

65
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,440
the amount of jurisdictional inspections that go into a home,

66
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:41,160
the amount of engineering that goes into every single home,

67
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:42,640
energy audit, it's things like that.

68
00:02:42,640 --> 00:02:46,240
Homes are built tighter substantially more solid than they ever

69
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:49,800
happened, which is why it's so hard to create new inventory.

70
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:51,760
It's not advocating to walk that back,

71
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:53,760
but we have to know what we're dealing with.

72
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:57,760
Right, with each new standard, that's creating an increase

73
00:02:57,760 --> 00:02:59,640
in the build price.

74
00:02:59,640 --> 00:03:00,480
It does.

75
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,520
So it's not just some manufactured inflation.

76
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:05,280
It's reflective of what it's actually

77
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:06,520
could seem to build that.

78
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:07,160
Exactly.

79
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:10,320
And it's how real estate is a representation of everything

80
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:11,160
converging.

81
00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:15,160
Financial markets when it comes to mortgage rates,

82
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,600
public policy when it comes to building codes,

83
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:21,160
energy standards, zoning, the cost of water tapping fees

84
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:23,480
when you're in a desert climate and an adrow.

85
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:25,440
There's a lot of things that play into this

86
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,880
and then the labor market in terms of who's going to build

87
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:28,520
your home.

88
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:30,160
But then who is behind your homes?

89
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:33,920
So it's everything converging and then you also have

90
00:03:33,920 --> 00:03:36,160
functionality and design, tastes and standards

91
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:37,440
that change throughout the year.

92
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:41,000
So not only is some of the inventory in the wrong location,

93
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,880
but if it's in the right location, it might be wildly dated.

94
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:48,120
And it might not be something that's palatable to the mask

95
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:49,200
with the mask market.

96
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:51,600
And it makes the industry that I'm in.

97
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:53,960
I mean, I can't gripe about it too much

98
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,240
because it's why there is this industry.

99
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,080
And if that were streamlined and less cumbersome,

100
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:00,040
it wouldn't be a business.

101
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:01,560
There'd be no business in it, right?

102
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:03,040
It would be too simple.

103
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:04,440
And people would build their own homes.

104
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:05,720
People would develop their own parcels.

105
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:07,800
So it's a blessing in the curse.

106
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:11,280
On that topic, though, if you look at where the industry is,

107
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:14,600
this industry that we love, it's chugging along.

108
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:18,360
And that's by 2025 and 2024 and 2023.

109
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:21,760
You're not seeing these big swings.

110
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,160
You're definitely saw a swing in 2021

111
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,600
because it was that chasm created by COVID.

112
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,880
So you'd see deliveries lower and then they rebounded.

113
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:31,720
But overall, the build process,

114
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:35,000
and the development process is on such long horizons,

115
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:36,600
a lot of things kind of iron out.

116
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:38,200
I mean, these little temporary blips.

117
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:41,400
Now we're in a period of sustained elevated rates.

118
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,440
It's still on a long enough horizon

119
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:47,480
that buyers can absorb in their mind that rates are higher.

120
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,840
They absorb what $500,000 gets them.

121
00:04:50,840 --> 00:04:54,200
For my days as a broker, I would see people who waited too long

122
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,520
and then the market six months later was a wildly different market.

123
00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:59,280
We're talking over horizon of six months.

124
00:04:59,280 --> 00:04:59,960
It's still happening.

125
00:04:59,960 --> 00:05:01,560
You're still a pretty long time.

126
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:03,720
The other day, we had a conversation about

127
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,640
how one of the best parts of this last year

128
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,600
when rates did spike a little because people get that

129
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:11,080
period of my gosh, am I going to miss it?

130
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:12,240
I really should buy now.

131
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,080
They're all actually getting it thinking,

132
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:15,240
well, it could fall.

133
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,200
It could fall when they realized it's not.

134
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:18,200
And that's what I'm talking about.

135
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:19,200
And that's what I'm talking about.

136
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:20,200
It's starting to take up.

137
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:21,200
It gave a great burst for the, exactly.

138
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:22,200
For the real estate market.

139
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:23,200
A 100%.

140
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:27,200
And what we saw was a paradoxical situation where

141
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:31,200
rates started to drop and there was a little brief sliver

142
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:32,200
of light.

143
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:36,200
I want to say the summer of 2024, where it looked like we might see rates

144
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:37,200
that start with a five.

145
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:40,200
They might be five point nine nine nine nine nine nine nine

146
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:43,200
but we thought for the first time since 2022,

147
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,200
we might see rates that start with the five.

148
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,200
And it may be one person got lucky and bought a point.

149
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:48,200
Got to five points.

150
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:53,200
But there's not a big cash of people that had five rates

151
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:54,200
and even five nine nine nine nine.

152
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,200
Most people are still well in the sixes.

153
00:05:56,200 --> 00:06:00,200
So I was we're waiting as rates were coming off of the sevens

154
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:02,200
and going into that little sliver of light,

155
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:05,200
we saw cells drop tremendously.

156
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,200
We saw new home traffic drop tremendously.

157
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:09,200
We saw just general waiting.

158
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:13,200
We can see then as rates obviously rebounded and came back.

159
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:17,200
We saw a spike in activity that we're at the end.

160
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,200
They were playing chicken with a spike.

161
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:22,200
They're playing chicken with a mortgage rate market.

162
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:24,200
And the real estate market to an extent.

163
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:25,200
They're looking at these homes.

164
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:27,200
They're passing passing, passing, thinking,

165
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,200
oh well, I'll have forever.

166
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:31,200
I have can get that house whenever.

167
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,200
It's been on the market for 86 days.

168
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,200
And then rates go up and your inventory shrinks.

169
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:40,200
So buyers psychology is really important in the real estate market

170
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:43,200
and also in new home construction as well.

171
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,200
Because really what we do in new home construction

172
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,200
has to be informed by what's happening in the resale market.

173
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,200
We're building homes and there are plenty of homes out there.

174
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:52,200
Not available.

175
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:53,200
Right.

176
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:56,200
11 them but earlier on over what I've raised.

177
00:06:56,200 --> 00:07:01,200
But at the end of the day, we have to be informed by what's happening in the existing home market.

178
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:06,200
Springboarding into Las Vegas and other sunbelt areas.

179
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:12,200
We're seeing, finished about 11,500 homes in 2024.

180
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:16,200
And we expect to finish around that same number in 2025.

181
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:19,200
Just based off of what permits are pulled right now.

182
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:23,200
And trends, there's about 9,000 ready to develop lots.

183
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:27,200
And that's just something that could be developed with them in the next six to nine months.

184
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,200
So there is the lot inventory in Las Vegas.

185
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,200
Now again, most of that's hold by those,

186
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:36,200
Fortune 500 home builders and publicly traded home builders.

187
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:37,200
Those are lots.

188
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:38,200
You can't go buying 9,000.

189
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:41,200
Las Vegas, I would say, is probably 400 lots.

190
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,200
And they're all luxury lots for the most part.

191
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:45,200
You could actually buy in Las Vegas.

192
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,200
But there's lots that are developed.

193
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:50,200
That's not even counting the infrastructure in the work that's going to be happening in the next.

194
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:54,200
No three or four quarters that will deliver more ready to go lots.

195
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:59,200
So assuming that builders will build on all 9,400 plus additional lots being brought to market.

196
00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:03,200
It stands to reason that we're probably seeing around the same number of homes,

197
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:06,200
still, I've heard single family homes give or take 10%.

198
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:10,200
It will be probably not less than 10 and not more than 12,000.

199
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:12,200
Top speed and completed in single family.

200
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:17,200
Now when we go into multi family, we see around 4 to 4,500 doors being completed.

201
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,200
So just some quick math.

202
00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:22,200
That's around 15,000 doors.

203
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:28,200
Las Vegas grew by 26,000 households last year.

204
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:31,200
If we see that same growth and the projections are,

205
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:36,200
we're actually significantly overperforming norms in Las Vegas.

206
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:40,200
And I would imagine many sunbelt cities are in the same boat.

207
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:42,200
We're overperforming.

208
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:46,200
So I have no reason to believe that 25, we're not going to see the same household creation.

209
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,200
That's new inbound immigration.

210
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:52,200
That's household formation of just your kids grow up and they get married and they do their thing.

211
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:57,200
And that also accounts for people that either die and households that are lost

212
00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:00,200
or people that move out of state households that are lost.

213
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:03,200
So that's a net increase of well over 20,000.

214
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,200
That those numbers and how they match up, they're such a void.

215
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:07,200
Huge disparity.

216
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:08,200
Huge disparity.

217
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:09,200
Huge.

218
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:10,200
Doing the quick.

219
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:11,200
We close that or do we close that.

220
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:13,200
The problem is the housing market is not elastic.

221
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:14,200
But there's nowhere to go.

222
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:18,200
You can't just snap your fingers and make or 1000 in a quick math that's between

223
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:21,200
4 to 7,000 doors, shorts.

224
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,200
Every year that's building up.

225
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:30,200
The estimates are around 20% underbuilt every year, which is a really bad deficit.

226
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:31,200
Right.

227
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:32,200
To overcome.

228
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:37,200
That's why we've seen nearly 100% price appreciation since before COVID.

229
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:39,200
We're seeing supply and demand in real time.

230
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:41,200
We're going to be hard pressed to add to demand.

231
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,200
So what you would think is that you're just going to see more doubling up less household

232
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:45,200
Formation.

233
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,200
And that's bearing outing even in national politics.

234
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,200
This idea that I can't start my life.

235
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,200
Because I can't form a household because I can't afford a house because I can't afford

236
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:53,200
to mortgage because I can't.

237
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,200
And it's having political implications.

238
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:57,200
People are voting on these issues.

239
00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,200
And because it matters to them, household formation.

240
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:02,200
Because that's where it's going to give first has to.

241
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:04,200
And not in the by intention just by design.

242
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:05,200
Just by design.

243
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:06,200
Just by design.

244
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:07,200
It's called out.

245
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:08,200
You put a jacket on.

246
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:09,200
It's just causing effect.

247
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,200
And if that's where we're going to see the elasticity.

248
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,200
You're not going to have new doors created.

249
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:16,200
Builders can only go so fast.

250
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:21,200
And it's going to be a while before you see downward pressure on migration.

251
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:22,200
Because of price.

252
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,200
I think people are still going to relocate.

253
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,200
There's a there's a very high threshold.

254
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:31,200
The average person migrating to a sundell city for a better life is going to have price

255
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,200
of homes and cost of living.

256
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,200
Not as high on their agenda as the move itself.

257
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:38,200
Because almost all sundell cities are in the same boat.

258
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,200
Which market is going to have quickest.

259
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,200
We've been watching the entry level product work.

260
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:44,200
It has been moving the clean recent years.

261
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:45,200
Yeah.

262
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:46,200
And now we're seeing that it is slowing.

263
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:47,200
Yeah.

264
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,200
I mean, that's a great point because you would think that as barren cost are higher.

265
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,200
And home prices are higher.

266
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:53,200
The bottom.

267
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:54,200
The top is where it's at.

268
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:55,200
Yes.

269
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:56,200
I would think that's the answer at 2025.

270
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:57,200
That's right.

271
00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:00,200
You would think the bottom of the market is where it's at.

272
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:05,200
As it turns out, the most vulnerable, the rate shocks, the most vulnerable to unemployment,

273
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:11,200
the most vulnerable to minor economic changes can sway their fortunes drastically.

274
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:14,200
So if you're building to that bottom of the market, you're very exposed.

275
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:16,200
And the greatest underserved market.

276
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:18,200
As if positive feedback loop.

277
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:21,200
It's so underserved because it is underserved because it's.

278
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:26,200
So as if you're a builder to risk and as we get in the weeds later on in the podcast,

279
00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:29,200
talk about some individual projects that we have coming as a company.

280
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:32,200
And as we're making decisions as to how to build those out.

281
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,200
This is informing my decisions.

282
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:37,200
The risk is higher building to the bottom of the market.

283
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,200
First, you have less room to go.

284
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:41,200
You have less room to absorb surprises.

285
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:44,200
If you're building at the median, which is in the middle,

286
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:45,200
$400,000 range.

287
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,200
If you have a $50,000 surprise.

288
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:48,200
Per home site.

289
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:50,200
It's 10% of the entire end of day sales price.

290
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:51,200
You can't sustain it.

291
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:52,200
It's just kidding.

292
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:56,200
If you're building to 150% of the median sales price at 800,000,

293
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:58,200
you have a $50,000 surprise.

294
00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:01,200
Those are the things that I'm excited to expose that.

295
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:02,200
And to share those pieces.

296
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,200
Those are things that people know where are out there.

297
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:05,200
That's right.

298
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,200
Even, you know, there's just, you don't know what you don't know.

299
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:08,200
That's right.

300
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:09,200
That's right.

301
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:10,200
Thought about it from that back in perspective.

302
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:14,200
This is going to open that door to the thought process that go into.

303
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,200
And hopefully start to explain.

304
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,200
Some of the nuances and some of the methods that the madness of the real estate market.

305
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,200
I don't see the problem reversing.

306
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:24,200
Like I said, I think household formation will be the first to go.

307
00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:27,200
And then eventually as our supply and demand gets too outstripped,

308
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:31,200
you might start to see some people second guessing moves to certain

309
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:34,200
some bell cities that don't have the room to grow out.

310
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:36,200
Or that can't meet that demand.

311
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,200
The people can't in the city like Las Vegas or Phoenix.

312
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:40,200
They can't just drive another 30 minutes.

313
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,200
Like you might be able to in Texas.

314
00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:43,200
You might be able to in Atlanta.

315
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:47,200
You might be able to move to an exor we don't have exorbs in these Southwest

316
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:48,200
Some bell markets.

317
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,200
We know the middle of town is built out and then be more expensive.

318
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:54,200
And so a lot of those cities are growing into the insularities.

319
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:55,200
That's right.

320
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:57,200
These are now referred to allow a lower price point or a more.

321
00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:58,200
Yeah.

322
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:01,200
And that's ideally the elasticity that the real estate market has followed.

323
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:03,200
Since suburban sprawl after World War II.

324
00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:04,200
That's what it was.

325
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:07,200
The belts became the elasticity in the housing market.

326
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:11,200
And then kind of helped to keep prices, you know,

327
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:14,200
and appreciation very stable.

328
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:17,200
And we don't really have that at least in our market.

329
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,200
It'll be interesting.

330
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:20,200
It'll be interesting.

331
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:21,200
It'll be interesting.

332
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:22,200
It'll be a great ride.

333
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:25,200
And projects on the book's board trust.

334
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:28,200
Land that is in the works and you know,

335
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,200
that are happening and a lot of things on yeah.

336
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:31,200
At the drawing board.

337
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,200
We're going to call those though.

338
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,200
You know, it's all, it's all the crystal wall guests at this point.

339
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:37,200
We're reading the two leaves.

340
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:39,200
Yeah, we're reading the two leaves.

341
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:40,200
You said love it.

342
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:41,200
Yeah.

343
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,200
Well, thank you for joining us again.

344
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:44,200
And we'll be back soon.

345
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,200
Hope to see you then.

346
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:47,200
