  <title>The Lock-In Economy - Jason Hartman - #6370</title>
  <description>Mortgage rates tripled. The crash never came. In this Episode Kerry Lutz and Jason Hartman break down why U.S. housing didn’t collapse when borrowing costs exploded. Nearly 25% of homeowners hold mortgages at or below 3%. About 65% are at 4% or less. That “lock-in effect” crushed supply and froze mobility. Fewer than 800,000 homes are listed nationwide — under 0.6% of America’s 140 million housing units. Owners won’t give up cheap debt. Inventory stays tight. Hartman believes this imbalance could persist into 2032–2033. Scarcity and utility continue driving prices — even after the rate shock. The conversation then shifts to immigration and rental housing. Hartman argues most undocumented migrants occupy lower-tier rentals, meaning enforcement shifts would likely hit C-class properties first. They also discuss Sun Belt migration trends and investor tools like PropertyTracker and Empowered Investor for sourcing income-producing properties. If you’ve been waiting for a housing crash, Kerry and Jason explain why it hasn’t happened — and what could finally change the equation.
