For Week Ending January 3, 2026

The National Association of REALTORS® (NAR) forecasts a 14% increase in existing-home sales in 2026, alongside a 5% rise in new-home sales. These gains are being fueled by steady job growth, softening mortgage rates, and improving overall market conditions. Home prices are projected to grow 4% this year, reflecting sustained demand and ongoing inventory constraints.
