I agree investors have taken a slice of the available homes but there is still a reported shortage.
You would think if there was an over abundance of homes prices would drop sharply but that hasn't happened. I believe there are a few areas under some pressure though. Zillow shows our house down about 3% from last year.
Significant rate cuts will definitely boost the housing market.

A severe shortage of over 4.7 million homes has created cascading economic and social challenges, from skyrocketing prices to reduced workforce mobility.
