The Truth About the Housing Crash: Is It Coming in 2026? | Ep. 62

A viral video claims 2 million viewers that the housing market is about to crash — but almost none of what it predicts is actually happening. Here's what the data really shows.
In this episode of Mortgage 101, Manley & Anthony break down why the "housing crash" narrative is emotionally satisfying but not backed by the numbers — and why waiting for a crash or a rate drop could be the most expensive decision you make this year. They cover home price-to-income ratios at record highs, why inflation cooling isn't the same as inflation reversing, what the Fed's latest rate decision really means for mortgage rates, and the real math behind renting-while-waiting vs. buying now.
If you've been sitting on the sidelines waiting for "the right time" to buy, this episode shows you exactly what that wait is costing you.
📞 This week's action step: Get pre-approved — not to buy tomorrow, but to know your actual buying power.
