Everyone's telling me to buy now before rates drop and prices explode again. What does the data actually say?

Information
30y fixed 6.8%Median price +2.1% YoYInventory +19% YoYAffordability near 40y low
Here's the picture: rates near 6.8%, prices still creeping up but inventory is loosening, and affordability sits near a 40-year low. 'Buy before it explodes' is a sales line, not a forecast — the data shows a stuck market, not a launchpad. Weigh it against your own timeline.

real estate LITERALLY cannot go down long term. you physically cannot lose buying a house. rent is throwing money away, buy or stay poor

Unsupported claim
US home prices fell ~27% 2007–2012Carrying costs ≈ 'lost' rentLocal, not universal
'Can't lose' is false — US prices fell about 27% from 2007 to 2012 and took years to recover. Owning has real carrying costs (taxes, rate, maintenance) that behave a lot like rent. Housing can be a good hold; it is not a guarantee. Don't buy on a slogan.
Information & education, not advice. Vega flags the claim; the decision is yours.
