The leading source for real estate news, Inman posed unique questions to agents, loan originators, real estate & mortgage executives, and proptech players that again provided essential takeaways for industry decision-makers. But the Triple-I found one tie, interest rates, which continues to bind nearly every real estate professional – today and in their outlooks for 2024.
Interest rates still hang heavy around the real estate industry’s collective neck. Per Inman Triple-I:
- Four out of five survey groups said interest rates are their top business concern.
- Mortgage pros, maybe the surprising exception, ranked interest rates second.
- Real estate agents and execs, surveyed during the Sitzer | Burnett trial, both put interest rates first even with ‘commission lawsuit fallout’ as an option.
- Real estate, mortgage and proptech executives remain hampered by costly cash. Asked about the cost and availability of capital today vs. 12 months ago, over 55% of business leaders either felt worse or the same but were pessimistic.
- There was more optimism expressed about raising capital 12 months from now. The percentage of respondents who said they felt better jumped five-fold.
Running concurrently with the Sitzer | Burnett trial, a real estate commissions case that may forever alter the residential real estate industry, the October Triple-I generated unmatched insights. Over 1,000 agents, broker-owners and real estate executives participated, offering real-time answers from the stakeholders most impacted by the lawsuit’s verdict.
Full results, presented in a 142-page presentation, and comprehensive reporting are available exclusively to Inman Intel subscribers.
