Decoding the U.S. housing market: What Opendoor’s performance reveals about home prices

At the edge of the sprawling desert community of North Las Vegas, the four-bedroom home at 7473 Moonglade Street epitomized the impact of the mortgage rate shock in 2022. During this period, mortgage rates surged from 3% in January 2022 to over 6% by June 2022. That placed iBuyers—online home-buying companies—and flippers in a vulnerable position as cities like Phoenix, Las Vegas, and Austin, which were once pandemic-era darlings, transitioned into full-blown housing corrections

In April 2022, Opendoor acquired the house for $494,000. However, when the iBuyer tried to flip the property back onto the market in May 2022 for $551,000, it found Las Vegas had rapidly shifted from a housing boom to a home price correction. Throughout the second half of 2022, the home experienced nearly a dozen price cuts. When it finally sold in April 2023, Opendoor only received $396,000, a 19.8% decrease from the purchase price.

So-called iBuyers like Opendoor make speedy offers to home sellers in exchange for a “service fee.” These iBuyers then handle any necessary repairs or cosmetic upgrades and put the property back up for sale. The business model is a new take on flipping; however, both business models have the same downside risks if pricing becomes destabilized.

“When the shiitake mushrooms hit the fan, [iBuyers/flippers] want to get out first. The way to do that is to figure out where the lowest sale is, and be 2% below that. And if it doesn’t sell in the first weekend, move it down [again],” Redfin CEO Glenn Kelman told me 15 months ago in October 2022, just days before announcing thatRedfin would close down its iBuyer business. “We notice immediately when fewer people are on our website and fewer signing up for tours . . . we’re sitting on $350 million worth of homes for sale that we bought with our own money, or worse bought with borrowed money. And what we always told investors is that we would protect our balance sheet by acting quickly. We don’t have hope as a strategy. We immediately started marking [things] down.”

    “Americans are increasingly leaning on their credit cards….Nothing there looks like anything to get too excited about…”

    Still maintain with no evidence other than my own anecdata that part of the balances explosion is just regular usage by higher end households that is in fact getting paid off…my ‘outstanding balances’ increased at least 3x as I’m spending more…since I pay the statement balance (no total outstanding) each month I’m showing up in those stats despite not having paid an interest charge. If you are paying your statement balance and not full outstanding each month you likewise are distorting this stat…

    Friendly with a woman in CRE. She had to call paramedics for a seriously intoxicated (non-responsive) illegal taken away in an ambulance to the hospital in one of her buildings. She recently had an emergency appendectomy.

    The illegal won’t pay a dime. She is still making installment payments on her OOP, plus a premium to cover the addict’s free care.

    Care was the same once each was wheeled through the doors.

    Trump Hotels and Casinos Resorts filed for bankruptcy again in 2004, after accruing about $1.8 billion in debt. Trump Entertainment Resorts also declared bankruptcy in 2009, after being hit hard during the 2008 recession.

I believe this opens the door to organizations like NAMBLA who now has never been closer to realizing their dream of becoming an acceptable, mainstream entity. Their mantra has always been about caring and love so, who are we to question it? As VSG has stated, we must mind our own business!

    As for the pole-dancing children, just imagine the gymnastics they’ll be performing by their early teens! The Pedo business will emerge as highly lucrative and profitable. I assume the progressives will retire the term “Pedo” since it has rather negative connotations and replace it with something more palatable like “Muppet Puppies Matter” or something like that.

    Not that I disagree with most of your statement, but right now JOe Biden is handing over pallets of cash and firing missiles as well. Obama. did a few “executions” from above as well.

    “Increase minimum wage to help people pay debt…”

    Because more dollars chasing after the same resources is….genius /s

    Plus if you read my response, I was agreeing with the poster that the headline credit card number may not be entirely representative of most opinions…

    “Or do what corporations do, just write it off.”

    Why do you think the rate is high 20 percent? Loss reserves….ie, those who struggle to actually pay – like my CRE health indebted friend – are subsidizing the irresponsible cohort that just flat out won’t pay, or in Biden’s illegal immigrant universe simply don’t have to.

    “I would say for every one person who pays off their balances every month , there may be 10 who do not. I think this issue is more concerning then you believe it to be.”

    My point is more nuanced than I believe you may be reading.

    There is the ‘statement balance’ on your credit card which is the amount due as of the closing date of the last statement.

    There is the ‘total balance’ on your credit card which is the statement balance plus charges made since the closing date of the last statement.

    If you pay the ‘statement balance’ you have paid in full and there are no interest charges.

    But…for credit reporting purposes from which many of these aggregate figures are derived you have an outstanding balance.

    As spending, especially among the top quartile, continues to go through the roof I’m suspecting there is some distortion in the reported numbers.

    For example, real one for me, if I had one month on one card an $11k statement balance, pay that amount on the due date, but a few days after the statement closing date drop $30k on a holiday I am from my and the bank’s perspective ‘paid and current’ but from a credit agency and aggregate outstanding balance perspective my outstanding balance has increased 3x even although that $30k will be paid in full as well in 27 days when it appears on my ‘statement balance’…

    What do most people here do on the day you log on to pay your card? Pay it down to zero as of the date you are on your computer or pay your statement balance?

    Trump lowered taxes for billionaires.
    Ask him for federal tax credits for any American with high credit card debt. It’s only fair

    Make sure you make that credit card/car/ mortgage/ health insurance payment. F’n deadbeat. If not, let me know, I can send you the coordinates to your choice of spots, the GWB, the Palisades, or the nearest railroad crossing that has a daily freight line.

    Macy’s, the country’s largest department store operator, told employees Thursday that it was laying off 13 percent of its corporate work force. The move comes as the company prepares to unveil a new strategy that its incoming chief executive will oversee.

    The cuts amount to roughly 2,350 jobs, or about 3.5 percent of the company’s overall work force, which includes employees at the subsidiaries Bloomingdale’s and Bluemercury. The layoffs will be achieved by eliminating some roles and consolidating teams, according to memos seen by The New York Times.

    The company also said it would close five of its more than 560 Macy’s stores.

    Women don’t like it when you take a house from them. Hope you enjoy your sheriff’s sale profit, now you have a reason to renovate it before you put it up for sale.

    According to NBC New York, the harrowing discovery was made by sheriff’s officers serving an eviction notice. The home had been sold in November 2023 for $322,000 at a sheriff’s sale, and the family had 60 days to leave or face eviction, the outlet said.

    Women are so nice to each other, even when they are in the ” baby” business. Hehe. Baby, sick baby, you work. So much for the sensitive caring women, kind, soft. Long gone. No ethics, no morals, just slave driving.

    Ying Liu, founder of Kyte Baby, issued a second apology after denying ex-employee Marissa Hughes’ remote work request as she stayed in the NICU with her adopted son. Hughes and husband Rawley, from Dallas, made the decision to adopt after she lost three pregnancies, went through IVF and nearly died during surgery. As Judah had ‘various health concerns’ requiring an extended hospital stay, Hughes requested to work remotely from the NICU. She was allegedly only offered two weeks and told she would lose her position if she failed to return to in-person work any later. Liu posted a second apology Thursday after catching flak from netizens who suspected the first video was not genuine, admitting ‘the comments were right’ and the video was ‘scripted.’
