2026 Housing Market Forecast: Mortgage Rates, Home Prices and Sales

Market figures and commentary reflect the October 24, 2025 episode, not current market conditions.

 2026 Housing Market Outlook is here!

After a few years of “stuck in neutral,” experts say 2026 could finally bring more movement, lower mortgage rates, and steadier home prices. 

On this week’s Podcast Jay & Andy will break it all down:
 Why more people are expected to move in 2026
 What’s driving mortgage rates toward the low 6s (and maybe high 5s)
 How prices are stabilizing — not crashing
 What this all means for buyers & sellers in our area

 Hint: 2026 may be your chance to finally make your move!
