Looking ahead to 2022? There is good news for buyers and sellers, especially those who wanted to sit out the insane market of the past 18 months. Next year could be a good time to consider listing.

"Housing market forecasts for 2022 suggest we could see a bit of a slowdown over the coming months. That would be a welcome change, after many months of overheated home-buying frenzy.

But don’t let those predictions fool you. When a turbocharged real estate market slows down slightly, it’s still moving at a pretty fast pace.

The bottom line here is that the U.S. real estate market might be a little better for buyers in 2022. But in most cities, it will still continue to favor sellers. Low supply levels are the number-one reason for this."

Recent housing market forecasts for 2022 suggest a slight cooling trend could be coming. But prices will likely continue to climb.

Some big picture insights on what's ahead for the housing market.

#1 has been a huge driver for the migration of many buyers across the Bay Bridge.

"Without the anchor of a physical office, workers have more freedom to purchase a home in more affordable, desirable areas. They may also justify the investment in a home because of its dual status as an office."

We are seeing a confluence of factors, from remote work to unique economic and social times, driving home prices upward.
