What If Everyone Tried to Sell Their House Tomorrow?

What would happen if millions of homeowners suddenly decided to sell their houses at the same time? At first, it might sound like great news for buyers. More houses would mean more choices, more negotiating power, and potentially much lower prices. But as prices fall, homeowners, borrowers, banks, builders, estate agents, and the wider economy could all feel the effects. In this video, we follow Leo, Oliver, Maya, Ryan, and Ethan through a hypothetical housing-market crash to see what happens when there are far more sellers than buyers — and why a house losing value doesn't mean the mortgage debt disappears. And if you watched our previous video “What If Everyone Wanted to Buy a House Tomorrow?”, this is the opposite scenario. Instead of millions of buyers competing for a limited number of houses, this time millions of sellers are competing for a limited number of buyers.
