Did the RE Bubble Pop?

Looking at the subsection of housing development stages seems to indicate that the real estate market is currently fueled by the demand created from 2020's liquidity boom.

(Chart 1)

While permits have returned to 2019 levels (chart indexed to Dec-2019) and seem to fluctuate with an expectation of interest rates being cut by the latter half of 2023. Is there more front-end demand destruction to come?

As developments complete, permits fall, and the potential for sticky inflation could extend the timeline of high interest rates - will housing find a new bottom? Will high interest rates keep buyers from buying the new inventory while construction demand slows?

(Chart 2)

30Yr premiums are at a 15 year high with risk being priced into the market. Homebuilders appear unshaken from the height of the priced risk as building continues with pent-up demand being tapped.

The median house price ballooned 48.6% in 2 years from Q2-2020 to Q4-2022. While Q1 2023 showed a price fall of 8.9%, was this the popping of the real estate bubble?

My opinion is we have more to see.
