L.A. Ranks Among Top Tech Cities in Latest Report as Tech Talent Population Grows
by Isabel Sami, The Business Journals, 8/9/2022
 
Los Angeles’ thriving tech industry continued to attract talent over the past year as demand in the market grows, revealing L.A. has a greater talent pool depth than other major tech hubs such as San Francisco, Boston and Seattle.

In a new report analyzing tech talent data, real estate services firm Cushman & Wakefield used data from across 115 tech cities globally to evaluate talent availability and cost, office real estate, and business environments.

David C. Smith, vice president and global head of occupier insights at Cushman & Wakefield, said demand for tech is unlikely to drop.

This week's avg 30-yr fixed-rate: 5.22%
The 30-year fixed-rate went back up to well over five percent this week, a reminder that recent volatility remains persistent. Although rates continue to fluctuate, recent data suggest that the housing market is stabilizing as it transitions from the surge of activity during the pandemic to a more balanced market. Declines in purchase demand continue to diminish while supply remains fairly tight across most markets. The consequence is that house prices likely will continue to rise, but at a slower pace for the rest of the summer.
Housing Inventory Picks Up Speed At A Record Pace
Housing Inventory Picks Up Speed at a Record Pace
by Brenda Richardson, Forbes, 8/9/2022

In signs that housing inventory is seeing meaningful recovery, active listings rose in July at a record annual pace — up 30.7% — for the third month in a row, according to the Realtor.com Monthly Housing Trends Report released on Tuesday.

Although buyers had more for-sale home options in July, competition remained largely in sellers’ favor, with listing prices near all-time highs and homes selling more quickly than before the pandemic.

“The U.S. housing market continues to move toward more evenly balanced supply and demand compared to the 2021 frenzy,” said Danielle Hale, chief economist for Realtor.com. “Our July data shows elevated mortgage rates left many buyers tightening their budgets and sellers responding with price reductions, while home shoppers who kept searching saw more available options.”

Migration Hits All-Time High in the U.S.’s Shifting Housing Market
Migration Hits All-Time High in the U.S.'s Shifting Housing Market
by V.L. Hendrickson, Mansion Global, 8/11/2022
 
Migration in the U.S. is at an all-time high as buyers look for more affordability among rate hikes and economic uncertainty. 

Last month, 33.7% of Redfin.com users were searching in another metro area, according to a report Thursday from the property portal. That’s the most since at least 2017—when Redfin started tracking the information—and up from 32.6% in the second quarter and about 26% before the pandemic. 

The analysis looked at 2 million users looking for residences in more than 100 metro areas. Users must have viewed at least 10 homes in the area to be included in the dataset, with properties there making up at least 80% of the user’s searches.
