Zillow paid too much. Tapering isn't going to have a material effect on new mortgages or home sales.


Yes, they did, but they could’ve still come out ahead if monetary policy wasn’t about to significantly shift and the carrying costs were reasonable.

Rising interest rates is absolutely going to have an impact on home values and mortgage rates. What it does to home transaction velocity is yet to be seen.


Do you think lower interest rates had no effect on prices? Or do you think it did - but that raising rates for some reason won't have an effect?
