What’s Ahead for Home Prices?

October 20, 2022 by Angelina Flores

As the housing market cools in response to the dramatic rise in mortgage rates, home price appreciation is cooling as well. And if you’re following along with headlines in the media, you’re probably seeing a wide range of opinions calling for everything from falling home prices to ongoing appreciation. But what’s true? What’s most likely to happen moving forward?

While opinions differ, the most likely outcome is we’ll fall somewhere in the middle of slight appreciation and slight depreciation. Here’s a look at the latest expert projections so you have the best information possible today.

What the Experts Are Saying About Home Prices Next Year

The graph below shows the most up-to-date forecasts from five experts in the housing industry. These are the experts that have most recently updated their projections based on current market trends:

What’s Ahead for Home Prices? | MyKCM

As the graph shows, the three blue bars represent experts calling for ongoing home price appreciation, just at a more moderate rate than recent years. The red bars on the graph are experts calling for home price depreciation.

While there isn’t a clear consensus, if you take the average (shown in green) of all five of these forecasts, the most likely outcome is, nationally, home price appreciation will be fairly flat next year.

What Does This Mean?

Basically, experts are divided on what’s ahead for 2023. Home prices will likely depreciate slightly in some markets and will continue to gain ground in others. It all depends on the conditions in your local market, like how overheated that market was in recent years, current inventory levels, buyer demand, and more.

The good news is home prices are expected to return to more normal levels of appreciation rather quickly. The latest forecast from Wells Fargo shows that, while they feel prices will fall in 2023, they think prices will recover and net positive in 2024. That forecast calls for 3.1% appreciation in 2024, which is a number much more in line with the long-term average of 4% annual appreciation.

And the Home Price Expectation Survey (HPES) from Pulsenomics, a poll of over one hundred industry experts, also calls for ongoing appreciation of roughly 2.6 to 4% from 2024-2026. This goes to show, even if prices decline slightly next year, it’s not expected to be a lasting trend.

As Jason Lewris, Co-Founder and Chief Data Officer for Parcl, says:

“In the absence of trustworthy, up-to-date information, real estate decisions are increasingly being driven by fear, uncertainty, and doubt.”

Don’t let fear or uncertainty change your plans. If you’re unsure about where prices are headed or how to make sense of what’s going on in today’s housing market, reach out to a local real estate professional for the guidance you need each step of the way.

Bottom Line

The housing market is shifting, and it’s a confusing place right now. Let’s connect so you have a trusted real estate professional to help you make confident and informed decisions about what’s happening in our market.

Ever wonder what it's really like to be a realtor? Ever wonder what it's really like to be a realtor? 🤔 As someone who's been in the business for a while, I can tell you that the reality of being a realtor is often quite different from what the public thinks. Here are a few things to keep in mind:
It's not just about selling homes: While selling homes is certainly a big part of what we do, there's a lot more to being a realtor than just closing deals. We also spend a lot of time networking, marketing our services, and building relationships with clients.
It's not always glamorous: Sure, we get to see some pretty amazing homes, but being a realtor also involves a lot of behind-the-scenes work, such as paperwork, negotiating deals, and managing client expectations.
It's a 24/7 job: Real estate doesn't stop just because the office is closed. We're often working nights and weekends to accommodate our clients' schedules and make sure everything is running smoothly.
It's all about relationships: At the end of the day, being a successful realtor is all about building strong relationships with clients and colleagues. It's about listening to their needs, understanding their goals, and providing the guidance and expertise they need to succeed.
So, there you have it - a glimpse into what it really looks like to be a realtor. As someone who's passionate about this industry, I'm proud to be part of a profession that's so rewarding, challenging, and fulfilling. 🏡💼 #realtorlife #behindthescenes #relationships

Here are the first steps to take when considering renting out your home:"
Research local rental rates: Before setting a rental price, it's important to research local rental rates to ensure that you're pricing your home competitively.
