This podcast episode examines the current landscape of the housing market in light of declining mortgage rates, highlighting the refinancing opportunities for homeowners and the impacts of convexity hedging on investors. While the improvement in affordability offers some hope to potential buyers, the episode underscores the overriding issue of limited inventory as the primary constraint in the housing supply, contrasting it with a still-present demand factor. The speakers anticipate a rise in home sales volumes, although not without acknowledging the complexities and limitations of this increase, ultimately painting a nuanced picture of the housing market's future.
