This should give every Realtor in the industry great pause right now. These numbers don’t lie.
Pending home sales in the US have moved down to their lowest level on record, falling below the prior low from April 2020 (a month where much of US economy was shut down). The housing market is essentially frozen.

A huge day for EXIT Strategy Realty aboard EXIT Realty International’s 30th anniversary cruise 🚢 today as Lona Reiling took home 2 awards, Mike Schulte won Top Recruiter for the whole franchise brand (31.5 agents sponsored with the 2nd place winner sponsoring 10) and our office group won yet again for being one of the most productive across the entire company worldwide.
THANK YOU 🙏 to our amazing Realtors & loyal clients for being with us for 17 years running (we opened October 2009 with only 8 agents!) —and the BEST is yet to come.
We are launching 🚀 in Wisconsin, expanding in Indiana and BACK in Michigan as we speak. Our September outpaced the market massively, with closed sides UP 38.3% year over year, new listings taken UP 11.4% & closed volume INCREASING 55.1% (while the Chicago Association of Realtors recorded a 6.4% DECLINE in units sold & inventory DOWN 19.4% the same period).
And last but not least, we’ve now surpassed $6.5 million in residual bonuses generated by our office group, and will reach $6.6 million by the end of the fall. We aren’t perfect, but always looking to raise the bar. 💯 JOIN US!

BREAKING: Wall Street raises SpaceX price targets after blockbuster Q3 earnings. J.P. Morgan more than doubled its target, leading a wave of increases as brokerages raised their targets following SpaceX’s stellar results.
Here’s the list of firms that raised their price targets:

BREAKING: US Pending Homes Sales collapsed -7.3% in September, to their lowest level on record in data going back to 2001.
The West saw the steepest decline of -9.2%, while sales in the South, the biggest home-selling region, fell -8.2%.
The housing market is frozen.
Vital time to find the currently RARE high intent buyers & sellers, that’s what we are focused on at EXIT Strategy Realty.
U.S. Housing Market sales just hit the lowest level ever in September 2026.
The NAR's pending sales index just fell to 66.0.
Which is the worst reading ever recorded.
50% lower than the pandemic peak, 35% lower than 2019 levels, and lower than any period during the 2008-09 downturn.
Homebuyers are boycotting the housing market due to excessively high prices, and mortgage rates back above 7%.
Meaning the U.S. remains mired in the biggest homebuyer recession in history, and it just got worse (sales down 11% YoY).
The upside here is it's now a good time to make low ball offers on houses. Especially in markets with high inventory.

Tesla Model Y beats Volkswagen’s Golf to become Germany’s best-selling car in September 2026, with registrations up 260.9% year over year.
It outsold every petrol, diesel, hybrid and electric rival.
A huge win for Tesla on Volkswagen’s home turf.
NOT EVERY DAY HAS TO, or CAN BE, a marathon. This weekend was a much-needed start to taking better care of my body — not been listening to it lately & pushing it beyond what is reasonably even for someone who loves work.
Health is wealth guys, and that starts at HOME. Even if it’s something as “boring” as getting more sleep.
Make it a GREAT week (within your healthy personal limits!)

Couldn’t have said it better myself @DoronMerdinger (and hence why I am a proud early investor in & deposit holder on the PURPOSEFUL flying car from @Doroniaero
I’ve always admired Elon. In my opinion, he is the greatest industrialist of our time, perhaps even of all time. His ability to challenge conventional thinking, push technological boundaries, and inspire millions of people is truly remarkable.
Having spent nearly 10 years building flying cars myself, I watched the demonstration with tremendous excitement and curiosity.
*But here’s the fundamental difference in our visions.*
As impressive as the Roadster is, what we saw appears to be essentially a car that can jump and perform incredible stunts, but still needs roads to get from one destination to another.
An amazing toy, no doubt! I might even buy one myself, without the jumping feature. 😄
Elon is pushing the boundaries of what a car can do. At Doroni Aerospace, we’re working to eliminate the need for roads altogether.
We’re bringing to life the flying car we’ve been promised for decades in movies, books, and science fiction. A true personal flying vehicle designed to take off vertically from your driveway, fly directly to your destination, and fit in your two-car garage.
Our H1-X is designed to be fully electric, with a target speed of 120 mph and a range of up to 100 miles.
But perhaps the most important difference isn’t speed, range, or even the ability to take off vertically. It’s making personal flight accessible to everyday people.
I’ve personally flown in our prototype, and I’m not a pilot! That experience reinforced my belief that the future of personal aviation must be built around simplicity, comfort, and safety.
We don’t want people to feel like they’re performing a stunt. We want them to feel confident flying to work, visiting friends, or simply enjoying the freedom of flight.
And that’s exactly what we’re building at Doroni.
Elon, congratulations on an incredible demonstration! I love seeing the world get excited about flying cars because I truly believe we’re entering an entirely new era of personal transportation.
And as Doc Brown famously said in Back to the Future: “Roads? Where we’re going, we don’t need roads.”
I said it two weeks ago friends & I’ll say it again here right now — tonight is going to be a game changer $TSLA
IT WAS ELECTRIC, then it FLEW 🚀
@Tesla to the skies we GO
PREDICTION: I’m calling it. $TSLA @tesla is turning the Roadster into a flying car using the MOSAIC #EVTOL guidelines from the FAA. This will be REVOLUTIONARY because most other eVTOLs are being designed as a “flying drone for humans” and NOT as a dual-function CAR meant for traditional roads AND a flying, passenger carrying eVTOL meant for personal use. BRAVO @elonmusk & the @Tesla team yet again!!
The Tesla Roadster becoming a flying car using the MOSAIC FAA guidelines will also be incredibly compelling in the eVTOL space due to its already proven FSD full self drive ability on its traditional EV platforms and how that will translate into easy to navigate destination input for the “pilot” of the eVTOL.
Not to mention the obvious talents of Tesla’s “sister” company SpaceX in the rocket 🚀 / propulsion and re-use / docking dominance. OFF WE GO & GROW ! BULLISH 🐂
