The number of single female homeowners in the U.S. hit a record 20 million last year, even as their overall homeownership rate dipped slightly from 52% to 51%, according to First American Financial Corp.

Housing affordability is expected to take center stage in 2026, with President Donald Trump promising to announce "the most aggressive housing reform in history" early in the new year.

The crisis has strained the market for three years, pushing home sales to 30-year lows and driving the typical first-time buyer’s age to a record 40.

A new analysis finds that restoring 2019 affordability—when mortgage payments averaged 21% of median income, versus more than 30% today—would require one unlikely shift: mortgage rates falling to 2.65%, incomes rising 56% to $132,171, or home prices dropping 35% to $273,000.

Zohran Mamdani has hit the ground running as New York City mayor, rolling out executive orders to accelerate housing, launching task forces to cut red tape, and calling hearings on illegal landlord practices, even as a judge blocked his effort to stop the sale of 5,000 rent-stabilized units.

The bigger challenge now is timing. Housing fixes take years to materialize, and economists say renters may wait at least three years before new supply meaningfully eases affordability pressures.
