Originally published during August 2025, this article discusses expectations during that year, not a market entering 2025. Forecasts describe possibilities and should not be confused with subsequently observed results.
Local markets can differ
National sales or price expectations cannot establish the outlook for an individual neighborhood or property. Review local inventory, comparable sales and carrying costs with qualified professionals.
Make a transaction-specific plan
Do not rely on projected appreciation or a future rate decline to support today’s payment. Ask for current financing terms and compare them with your own budget and time horizon.
