The U.S. housing market will finally turn the corner in 2026, with a double-digit increase in home sales supporting a 4% increase in home prices, according to new predictions from the National Association of Realtors®.

“Next year is really the year that we will see a measurable increase in sales,” Yun said on Friday at a NAR conference in Houston. “Home prices nationwide are in no danger of declining.”

More than half of all homes are selling for less than their asking price, as buyers gain leverage in a weaker housing market, according to a new report.

In May, total home sales dropped 15% compared to last year, while the national median list price stayed steady at $495,000 and mortgage rates hovered near 7%, according to a new analysis by real estate analytics firm Cotality.

With fewer buyers in the market, sellers are starting to lower prices, 56% of homes sold below their asking price in May, the report revealed.

“Savvy buyers are now in a market that is primed for negotiations on price reduction, closing cost assistance, and mortgage rate buydowns,” says Cotality senior economist Daniel Boswell. “However, the tilt toward a buyers’ market is only a bright spot for those who have the means to make a move. For many, systemic hurdles such as interest rates and rising insurance costs remain a barrier to homeownership.”
