California Housing Market Forecast for the Next 2 Years: 2026-2028
Looking ahead to 2026–2028, California’s housing market appears to be settling into a more predictable rhythm, with annual price increases of 2.5% to 4% on the horizon. For those exploring options in regions like Burbank, Glendale, or Pasadena, a growing inventory and steady mortgage rates could open up new possibilities—though affordability challenges continue to shape buyer behavior. As a broker and investor deeply involved in both single-family and multifamily properties, I’m closely watching how these trends fuel demand for entry-level homes and more accessible neighborhoods. Navigating these shifts takes local knowledge and a practical approach to both investment and homeownership.
