"Zillow's national forecast (published in November 2025) predicts a modest 1.2% rise in U.S. home values between August 2025 and August 2026. The general trends expected to influence the market in 2026 include: Modest Price Growth: Unlike the rapid increases of previous years, appreciation is expected to be slower. Improving Affordability: Rising incomes, easing mortgage rates, and slower price growth are projected to modestly improve affordability for buyers."
"While a specific 2026 forecast for Downtown Boston is unavailable, Zillow data for the general Boston area highlights certain characteristics: Resilient Market: The Boston market is generally considered a strong, seller-friendly market with high demand and limited inventory compared to national trends. Current Downtown Median Value: As of late 2025, the typical home value (Zillow Home Value Index) in the Downtown neighborhood was approximately $1,123,040, a decrease of 5.1% over the previous year."

The Downtown median home value was about $1,123,040 in late 2025, down 5.1% year-over-year; nearby neighborhoods vary, and affordability across the metro remains challenging.
