Housing Crash "Experts": "It'll Be Worse Than 2008" (Since 2022)

I used AI to rank every major housing market analyst since 2022 — who called the housing crash right, who got mortgage rate forecasts wrong, and where real estate is really headed in 2026. See how Logan from HousingWire, Realtor.com, and Zillow scored versus analysts still predicting a crash worse than 2008.

Every day someone tells you exactly where mortgage rates and home prices are headed — but almost none of them go back and check if they were right. So I did. I ran the top housing market analysts and real estate YouTubers through AI, backdated the data to 2022, and scored who actually predicted housing correctly versus who's been calling for a housing crash worse than 2008 for four years straight.

In this video I break down:

  • The top-ranked housing market analysts since 2022 (HousingWire, Realtor.com, Zillow)
  • The real estate influencers with the worst forecasting track record on mortgage rates and home prices
  • Why "housing crash worse than 2008" predictions have failed for years
  • Where my own mortgage rate and housing forecasts ranked
  • What this means for homebuyers and homeowners deciding whether to buy, sell, or refinance in 2026
