Four Reasons Why 2026 Is Looking Better for Homeownership
A balanced rebound is taking shape in the 2026 housing market: rising sales, easing mortgage rates, and expanding opportunities for buyers and sellers alike.
Rebounding Market and More Options
After a slower 2025, existing-home sales are projected to rise about 14% nationwide in 2026, according to the NAR. Falling mortgage rates and steady job growth are helping inventory recover, giving buyers more choices and easing the intense competition of recent years. First-time and move-up buyers can expect a smoother, more predictable purchasing process.
