\"Expert<\/p>\n

As we move into 2022, both buyers<\/a> and sellers<\/a> are wondering, what\u2019s next? Will there be more homes available to buy? Will prices keep climbing? How high will mortgage rates go? For the answer to those questions and more, we turn to the experts. Here\u2019s a look at what they say we can expect in 2022.<\/span><\/p>\n

Odeta Kushi<\/a>, Deputy Chief Economist, First American<\/em>:<\/h5>\n
\n

\u201cConsensus forecasts put rates at about 3.7% by the end of next year<\/strong>. So, that\u2019s still historically low, but certainly higher than they are today.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Danielle Hale<\/a>, Chief Economist, realtor.com: <\/em><\/h5>\n
\n

\u201cAffordability will increasingly be a challenge as interest rates and prices rise, but remote work may expand search areas<\/strong> and enable younger buyers to find their first homes sooner than they might have otherwise. And with more than 45 million millennials within the prime first-time buying ages of 26-35 heading into 2022, we expect the market to remain competitive<\/strong>.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Lawrence Yun<\/a>, Chief Economist, National Association of Realtors <\/em>(NAR):<\/h5>\n
\n

\u201cWith more housing inventory to hit the market<\/strong>, the intense multiple offers will start to ease. Home prices will continue to rise but at a slower pace<\/strong>.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

George Ratiu<\/a>, Manager of Economic Research, realtor.com<\/em>:<\/h5>\n
\n

\u201cWe also expect a growing number of homeowners to bring properties to market, taking some pressure off high prices and offering buyers more options<\/strong>.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Mark Fleming<\/a>, Chief Economist, First American<\/em>:<\/h5>\n
\n

\u201c<\/em>Strong demographic demand will continue to act as the wind in the housing market\u2019s sails<\/em><\/strong>.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

What Does This Mean for Buyers?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Hope is on the horizon for 2022. You should see your options grow as more homes are listed and some of the peak intensity of buyer competition starts to ease. Just remember, rising rates<\/a> and prices are a great motivator for you to find the home of your dreams sooner rather than later so you can buy while today\u2019s affordability<\/a> is still in your favor.<\/p>\n

What Does This Mean for Sellers?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Make no mistake \u2013 this sellers\u2019 market<\/a> will remain in 2022 as home prices are projected to continue climbing, just at a more moderate pace. Selling your house while buyer demand is so high will truly put you in the driver\u2019s seat. But don\u2019t wait too long. With more listings projected to become available, your ideal window of opportunity to stand out from the crowd won\u2019t last forever. Work with an agent who knows your local market and current inventory conditions to ensure you have the support you need to make an educated and informed decision about selling in the coming year.<\/p>\n

Bottom Line<\/strong><\/h3>\n

If you\u2019re thinking of buying or selling, 2022 may be your year. Let\u2019s connect to discuss your goals and the unique opportunities you have in today\u2019s housing market.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
