The US housing market faces a potential 19.5% correction, and more rate hikes from the central bank could make a crash even worse,The global housing market has become frothy since 2020 as a result of the pandemic boom, according to authors Lauren Black and Enrique Martínez-García, and there's still a risk of a deep housing slide despite signs of easing home-price growth.

"[I]f the observed price-to-rent ratio grows at an explosive rate relative to its fundamental-based ratio estimated with long-term interest rate and rent growth data, the bubble hypothesis merits attention," they said.
