The Mid-Year Housing Market Update: Why Forecasts Changed in 2026

The housing market hasn’t rebounded as quickly as experts originally hoped. But that doesn’t mean it’s stalled.

Higher inflation and lingering economic uncertainty caused economists to revise their forecasts for this year. But importantly, when those two things settle down, many experts believe the market will regain its momentum.

So don’t see this revision in forecasts as a sign of trouble. See it as a temporary reaction to overall conditions and uncertainty.

If you want to know what’s happening in our local market, and what it could mean for your plans for the rest of this year, let’s connect.

Less House, More Home: Why Smaller Homes Are Paying Off for Today’s Buyers

Today’s smaller single-family homes and condos have more going for them than the square footage suggests. They can give your budget some breathing room and put you in a community designed with lifestyle in mind.

Life changes. Priorities shift. Families grow. Kids move out. Careers evolve. And eventually, the house you’re in may stop fitting the life you’re living.

If that’s been weighing on you lately, let’s talk through what your options could realistically look like today, no matter where rates or prices are.

Life can’t always wait for perfect market conditions. Maybe you don’t have to either.

Puede que se esté diciendo a usted mismo que va a esperar para mudarse; quizá usted está esperando que bajen las tasas hipotecarias, que bajen los precios o que el mercado se sienta un poco más tranquilo.

So excited for my buyers on this one! They originally thought they were moving out of town, but Wichita drew them back in, and they decided to stay here! I am so grateful that they thought of me again after quite some time to help them make Wichita their home! I can’t wait to get them their keys to this beautiful home!

If you have been giving some thought to leaving Wichita, give me a call first! I can help find you the right home here that will make you want to stay!
