Welcome back to " Real Estate Jerky Daily," the go-to podcast where real estate meets the latest market insights. I'm your host, Ed Parcaut, joined by my co-host Mike Kelly, for another content-rich episode of Market Update Monday Edition - Real Estate Jerky Daily. In today's episode, we reflect on a weekend rich with community events and hearty discussions, despite a lower-than-expected turnout due to rainy weather. Ed and Mike express their deep appreciation for the sponsors—particularly citing Village Supply and C3 Insurance from San Diego—for their support in a variety of local engagements, including the remarkable and heartwarming Operation Firewalk event.  As we dive into the meat of our podcast, we tackle the latest real estate numbers, revealing an inventory increase and discussing the implications of price cuts in listings.  The hosts take a deep dive into current economic indicators such as the National Association of Housing Builders index and the surprising strength of recent retail sales data, painting a complex picture of the market's future. And we don't shy away from the broader societal conversations either—from the difficulties of job relocation due to housing cost handcuffs to the interesting trends in pet bereavements.  So buckle up, as today's chat is as fiery and spirited as walking over hot coals. Whether you're a veteran of the industry or fresh to the housing market maze, join us as we break down the figures and facts, making sense of what's happening right now in real estate.
