Jason welcomes Josh Mettle, an expert in mortgages markets. According to Josh, the recent decline in mortgage purchase applications, despite rising home prices, is not indicative of a looming housing crash. This is because the current demographic trends favor homeownership, with millennials and Gen Z representing a large cohort of potential buyers. As mortgage rates continue to decrease, we can expect a resurgence in demand, leading to a surge in home purchases. Additionally, the increase in cash transactions suggests that many buyers have the financial means to purchase homes without relying on mortgages.

They also discuss the recent trend of increased cash buyers in real estate transactions, despite concerns about mortgage applications. Jason attributes this to demographic shifts and upcoming wealth transfers. Josh then emphasizes the importance of understanding demographics and the impact of inflation on debt destruction when making investment decisions.

Specifically, they point out that the baby boomers, a large generation nearing retirement age, are selling their homes and transferring their wealth to younger generations. This, combined with the growing number of millennials and Gen Zers entering the housing market, has created a surge in demand for properties. Josh also also highlights the impact of inflation on debt, arguing that rising prices can reduce the real value of mortgage payments over time, making it more affordable for borrowers.

Overall, Josh's analysis suggests that the real estate market is poised for continued growth in the coming years, driven by demographic trends and economic factors.
