Being near a data center doesn’t automatically mean a home will lose value. A Northern Virginia study found no evidence of a general drop in sale prices near them, though the experience can vary from one property to another.

A look at how data center projects may affect nearby homes, including construction, noise, site plans, and what research says about sale prices.

If you’re thinking about buying, keep an eye on both mortgage rates and the number of homes for sale where you want to live. The national picture gives you context, but your local options will shape the decision.

The article’s national sales and pending-sales figures match NAR’s August reports, but its mortgage-rate discussion mixes figures from different surveys without clearly identifying their dates. Freddie Mac’s 30-year average was 6.95% on September 17. Keep specific rate claims out of the captio...

If you’re waiting for home prices to suddenly collapse, current data points more toward a slow, uneven market adjustment, with some areas cooling while national prices remain relatively steady.

There’s plenty of talk about a possible housing crash, but the conditions today look very different from those surrounding 2008. Housing supply was about 4.5 months in May compared with roughly 13 months leading into the previous crisis, while lending standards are stronger and homeowners generall...

If you’re comparing affordable places to put down roots, housing is only part of the equation—jobs, everyday expenses and the neighbourhood you choose matter too.

Affordability can look dramatically different depending on where you live. FinanceFirst’s 2026 ranking puts Toledo and Laredo at the top, followed by Lubbock, Fort Wayne and Memphis. The 25 cities on the list have cost-of-living indexes between 80 and 91, placing them below the national benchmark....

If you’re watching the luxury market, this listing is a good reminder that even distinctive waterfront properties sometimes need significant price adjustments to find the right buyer.

Hulk Hogan’s five-bedroom waterfront home was originally listed for $10.98 million and, after several reductions, is now asking $6.9 million. The home spans just over 5,000 square feet a...

If buying fits your budget and long-term plans, today’s market has some advantages, including mortgage rates below last summer’s levels and more sellers adjusting their prices.

There are still affordability challenges, but the buying environment has some encouraging signs. Mortgage rates are lower than they were last summer, price cuts are becoming more common, and competition has eased as homes spend a little longer on the market. NerdWallet’s bigger point is that tryin...
