Real estate ‘bubble in the making’: Pro

The real estate market might be heading into troubled territory, Dani Babb of The Babb Group said Thursday.

"I think we have another bubble in the making," she said. "We're seeing a lot of numbers that are reminiscent of 2005 and 2006, and I'm concerned about the long-term price stability and ability to maintain the price momentum that we've seen over the last year that's largely been driven by very low interest rates."

On CNBC's "Fast Money," Babb noted that there was a significant driver of the real estate market this time, just like the last bubble.

"We had a bubble last time driven by very easy credit," she said. "We have a bubble this time, potentially, driven by very cheap credit over a long period of time."

Babb, whose firm represents $5 billion in investor funds, also pointed out a sharp increase in prices.

"We've got a median price that's grown 13 percent in the last year, and that's the highest percent gain since 2005," she said.

"So, if all other factors hold the same and consistent – and we expect similar types of gains over the next, maybe say, one to three years – we could see prices back where they were again."

The price action is already appearing in a few markets, Babb added.

"We're already starting to see some signs of that in Miami, Boston, California, where we've got 65 percent of purchases made in cash by investors," she said.

Cash buyers are often also paying a premium of 10 to 15 percent over asking prices, Babb added.

OptionMonster's Jon Najarian said that while many investors look at names like Masco or Toll Brothers to play the real estate market, what they might want to focus on are the websites that cater to buyers and sellers, such as Move, Zillow and Trulia, which "blew away on page views and unique views."
