Moody’s economist Matthew Walsh sees US home prices on a national basis as slightly overvalued.
According to the renowned market research firm’s model, national median prices are currently 15.7% above their fundamental value, leading Walsh to believe they’ll face another 4-4.5% decline in the coming months. The model accounts for variables like construction costs, household formation rates, and where home prices stand relative to median incomes. Nationally, homes are the least affordable relative to incomes that they’ve been in four decades, Walsh said.
