Looking ahead to 2026, we’re anticipating a notable shift in the real estate landscape: home price appreciation is projected to slow to just 1.2%. At the same time, existing-home sales are expected to see a modest bump, reaching 4.10 million. Inventory growth is predicted at 3.6%, and the homeownership rate could climb to 65.1%. For those keeping an eye on rental trends, rents are forecasted to decline by 1.2%.
After more than 35 years working with buyers and sellers throughout Oxford, Metamora, Lapeer, and neighboring Michigan communities, I know how important it is to keep clients informed about these kinds of market changes. Whether you’re thinking about making a move or just want to stay up to date, my goal is always to make your real estate experience as smooth and stress-free as possible.
