Housing Market Forecasts for the Second Half of 2025

Are you wondering what to expect if you buy or sell a home in the second half of the year? Here’s what the expert forecasts tell you:

Mortgage rates are expected to come down slightly. Experts project rates should be in the mid-to-low 6% range by the end of the year as greater certainty unfolds in the economy.

Inventory is expected to continue to grow–you already have more options because inventory is up 30% compared to this time last year. And if rates do come down, more homes will come to the market.

As inventory grows, there will be less upward pressure on prices. So price growth is expected to moderate nationally. (This will vary by local area.)
