The housing market just had its worst March since 2009.

Home sales fall to lowest level since the financial crisis
The slump is especially noteworthy because sales typically pick up in March as the spring buying season gets underway.

It’s going to eclipse 1973-75, 1981-82 and 2007-09.

Very deep and very protracted.
