Home sellers are now prioritizing ease of sale, Opendoor CEO says

Sixty-five percent of first-time home sellers say they would have been willing to accept 20% less to avoid the stress of preparing their home for sale, according to Opendoor (OPEN), an online residential real estate platform. Opendoor CEO Carrie Wheeler joins Wealth with Madison Mills to discuss the state of the current housing market for sellers and buyers. "[Nearly] two-thirds of sellers saying they would have taken something less to avoid the traditional listing process of getting your home ready for sale, staging it, going through the uncertainty of the offer process, exposing yourself to the risk of fall through where one in four buyers are falling through on contract," Wheeler tells Yahoo Finance. The CEO says the finding signals "that while maximizing price for sure is a priority for home sellers, this generation of sellers are also looking to prioritize convenience and certainty, particularly in this market that's been really tough for home sellers." Watch the video above to hear from Opendoor CEO Carrie Wheeler about the housing market, including challenges for buyers, homebuying seasonality, and more.

Trump's tariffs could benefit this wood-alternative manufacturer

US President Donald Trump says he will pause tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico until April 2. Trex (TREX) CEO and president Bryan Fairbanks joins Asking for a Trend with Julie Hyman and Josh Lipton to discuss the "moving target" that is Trump's tariff policy and how tariffs are expected to impact the company that makes wood-alternative composite decking. "The vast majority of everything that we sell is manufactured in the US, [but] we do have a little bit that's sourced from outside the US [and that] will be subject to tariffs, but it will be immaterial in the whole scheme of things," Fairbanks tells Yahoo Finance. The chief executive explains there may actually be an opportunity for Trex if the tariffs raise lumber prices, driving more consumers to their products: We could see the gap between a composite deck board and a lumber deck board tighten up a little bit." Fairbanks outlines that the smaller the price difference between lumber and Trex's composite material, the more likely consumers are to upgrade from lumber.

Homebuilder stocks pop on potential tariff exemptions

Homebuilder stocks like Lennar (LEN), Toll Brothers (TOL), and D.R. Horton (DHI) rise as investors consider possible exemptions for US President Donald Trump's tariffs. HousingWire lead analyst Logan Mohtashami joins Wealth with Madison Mills to take a closer look at the housing market and the impact of tariffs. Tariffs will increase material costs for homebuilders, which raises concerns about increased housing costs; Mohtashami says the "concern is [builders are] not going to be building a lot of homes," contributing to ongoing affordability challenges. "For the builders, it's a supply and margin story right now. And they were not happy about anything talking about tariffs," he adds, highlighting low homebuilder confidence.

Saint-Gobain NA CEO lays out how industry is navigating tariff risk

Construction materials company Saint-Gobain (SGO.PA, CODYY) released its fourth quarter earnings results last week ahead of President Trump's tariffs on Canada, China, and Mexico that took effect at midnight. "So tariffs are clearly an issue because you do have some cross-border trade, of course, in this process. But it's nowhere near as much as other industries that are making products go back and forth," Saint-Gobain North America CEO and president Mark Rayfield tells Julie Hyman and Josh Lipton on Market Domination. Rayfield attributes Saint-Gobain, and its broader materials sector, to navigating some of the tariff pressures due to the fact that not many materials can go very far and are delivered more locally. "The big builders will say we need to manage our cost for some perspective, but they are delinked. I mean, there is a risk that housing prices, which are already at a pretty high affordability aspect for people, will go higher with inflation on products because there are some imported building products and lumber. We don't correlate it to ours. So we aren't looking for a price decrease based on lumber going up."
