"Price Growth: Prices are expected to continue rising, but at a more moderate pace, likely within a single-digit percentage range. This continued appreciation is supported by the region's strong local economy, including the tech and biotech sectors, and persistent high demand. A "bubble" or a significant price crash is considered unlikely. Inventory: Inventory levels are projected to increase modestly, providing buyers with more options than in the immediate post-pandemic years."
"Mortgage Rates: Mortgage interest rates are expected to decline slightly or moderate, potentially settling around 6%. Lower rates could boost buyer demand and lead to an increase in overall home sales activity. Affordability: Despite a more balanced market, high prices and elevated (though easing) interest rates will keep affordability a significant challenge, particularly for low-to-moderate-income buyers. Market Conditions: The market is becoming more selective."
Prices are expected to grow modestly in 2026, likely within a single-digit percentage range supported by a strong local economy and persistent demand. Inventory should rise modestly, providing buyers with more choices while remaining below pre-2020 levels. Mortgage interest rates may decline or moderate, potentially settling around 6%, which could boost buyer demand and sales activity. High prices and elevated interest rates will keep affordability a significant challenge for low-to-moderate-income buyers. The market will be more balanced and selective. Well-priced, move-in-ready properties will sell quickly, while other listings may take longer and offer negotiation opportunities. Buyers should focus on total cost of ownership and refinancing options.
