More homeowners are missing the mark on pricing in today’s shifting market. And if you make that same mistake, you may wind up facing some difficult choices.

You could drop the price. But now, buyers will wonder what’s wrong with it.

You could take it off the market – and put your move on hold.

Or, you could keep it and rent it out. It sounds simple, until you’re a landlord juggling repairs, leases, and late-night maintenance calls.

None of these things are what you were hoping for. But they happen when you chase last year’s price in this year’s market.

If you’ve been watching the market, you’ve likely noticed a few changes already this year. But what’s next? 

07/24/2025

Despite what you may be hearing in the headlines, experts agree home prices are still projected to rise overall in 2025 – just at a slower pace than we’ve seen recently.

On average, forecasters say it’ll be about a 1.5-2% increase nationwide this year.

While some markets are seeing prices level off or dip slightly right now, a dramatic drop across the board isn’t expected. Prices may even be what some would argue as closer to flat by the end of this year.

But context matters, and what you should always keep in mind is, nationally, prices are up 55% compared to just 5 years ago. So, some slight declines don’t drastically change the game.

But every market is different. So, let’s talk about what prices are doing in our area and what that means for your plans.

A lot of homebuyers are missing a big opportunity in today’s housing market: newly built homes.

Right now, there are more new homes to choose from. And as a result, some builders may be more willing to negotiate on price. Many are even offering better mortgage rates too via something called mortgage rate buy-downs.

This graph shows buyers of newly built homes got a mortgage rate around half a percent lower compared to those who bought existing homes.

That means you could find a great home with a lower mortgage rate, and that might make your monthly payment more manageable than you expected.

If you haven’t considered a newly built home yet, what’s holding you back?

Let’s talk and see if checking out new construction could be the right move for you.
