## Resource

Real estate headlines are loud right now — rising foreclosures, fragile mortgage demand, insurance spikes… but what’s actually happening on the ground? In this episode, we break down why foreclosures aren’t flashing red, what’s really driving buyer hesitation, how insurance is quietly reshaping affordability, and what the numbers say in Plainfield, IL. Plus, new construction pricing and why downsizing might be the next big move. #RealEstate #HousingMarket #Foreclosures #MortgageRates #InsuranceCosts #PlainfieldIL #IllinoisRealEstate #NewConstruction #Downsizing #MarketUpdate #GetRealWithEddie #HomeSales #HousingData 00:00:00 Why is rising foreclosures not a red flag00:12:19 Mortgage demand is fragile00:16:59 Insurance costs are rising00:30:13 Sales data for Plainfield, IL00:33:02 New construction price has increased00:44:06 Downsizing may becoming into a place
