If you’ve been keeping an eye on the housing market, you’ve probably heard whispers (and maybe even a few worries) about where things are headed. The good news? Experts are predicting that home sales are on the rise over the next couple of years—and that’s something worth paying attention to whether you’re thinking about buying or selling.
According to forecasts from Fannie Mae, the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA), and the National Association of Realtors (NAR), the market is expected to see steady growth in home sales:
2024: 4,753,000 homes sold
2025 (Projected): 4,817,103 homes
2026 (Forecast): 5,257,929 homes
A few factors are fueling this expected rise. Mortgage rates are stabilizing, giving buyers more confidence to make a move. At the same time, inventory is slowly improving, which means buyers have more options and sellers have a larger pool of interested buyers.
If you’ve been on the fence about listing your home, these projections show that buyer demand is expected to remain strong—and even grow. Selling in a rising market can often mean more competition for your home and potentially better offers.
On the flip side, if you’re planning to buy, waiting too long could mean facing more competition down the road. With sales expected to climb, jumping into the market sooner rather than later could help you lock in a home before demand pushes things even higher.
The housing market is showing signs of steady growth, and that’s encouraging news. Whether you’re planning to sell or buy, staying informed and working with a trusted real estate professional can help you take advantage of the opportunities ahead.
If you’re thinking about making a move—or just curious about what these projections mean for your plans—let’s connect. I’d love to walk you through the details and help you figure out your best next step.
