Ep.80 The Matrix, Alien Invasions and The Housing Market

Is the housing market really heading for a crash, or is the data telling a very different story?

In this episode, Jason sits down with housing economist Steven Thomas to break down what’s actually happening with interest rates, home values, and inventory, especially in Orange County and Southern California.

They unpack why popular crash narratives and so-called “18-year housing cycles” don’t hold up under real data, and why today’s housing market looks fundamentally different from past downturns like 2008. The conversation focuses on what truly impacts affordability, how fixed-rate mortgages change long-term outcomes for homeowners, and why stability matters more than sudden rate drops.
