Sylvia: OK. The first item is the recent US housing market. Michael, could you give me a summary?
Michael: Yes. Can you see my screen share?
Takashi: No, I can’t see. I’ll try to enable screen sharing.
Michael: Thank you Takashi. OK. So, the pandemic took a toll on the US economy. However, this graph shows that there wasn’t a significant decline in the average housing price in the last two years. The demand is likely to be stable on a short term basis.
Sylvia: So, the market held up well. Are there any questions or comments, Takashi?
Takashi: What do you think is the reason behind this stable market?
Michael: I think this is driven by record low interest rates. But as remote working is becoming a new trend, I guess the demand for bigger houses is on the rise.
Shibata: Are Americans looking for even larger homes?
Jenny: I think so especially with more teleworking. We need more offices and office space in our homes especially if more than one person is working from home.
