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. While none are expected in 2026, the data highlights how far the market remains from pre-pandemic affordability.

Our Story

As an agent who's an expert in this local area, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise about buying and selling real estate here. It's not the same everywhere, so you need someone you can trust for up-to-date information. I am eager to serve you. I Assist You Every Step of The Way SELLING YOUR HOME I am a reliable professional and committed to meeting your demands and looking out for your best interests. A comprehensive knowledge of the housing market is perhaps the most powerful tool a realtor has. I will preview your property and use a comparative analysis to determine a fair and workable selling price range. This is only the first step. Once an initial price range has been set, I will offer a number of valuable tips on how to get the best possible price for your home in the shortest possible time. Oftentimes buyers don't visualize living in your home the way you do. I can make your home attractive to its ideal audience - which can help you get top dollar. Things like staging the home, making repairs or minor improvements, or even simply painting the walls can be the difference between a home resting on the market and one that's sold fast. A marketing plan aimed at exposing your home to the maximum number of buyers interested in purchasing a property such as yours. Listing your home on the Multiple Listing Service, along with advertising and open houses are among the options. Once potential buyers have been located, I can make your life easier by pre-screening applicants before the time and effort is spent showing your home. Once a suitable buyer is found, I will be of immense help during the sometimes stressful negotiation period. I have been through this procedure many times and know the finer points of offers and counter offers. Having me as your realtor working for you during negotiations keeping you at “arm's length,” greatly reducing the anxiety involved in selling and allowing clear, objective decisions to be made. I will be with you every step of the way, from making your home as attractive as possible and exposing it to the right buyers, to negotiating on your behalf and closing the sale. FINDING YOUR NEXT HOME or FIRST HOME I am A Monmouth County native. I have unsurpassed knowledge of the local market, which enables me to instinctively match clients with their ideal properties. I can work with you to find the right home at the right price for you, including all the neighborhood amenities that matter - not to mention the essential criteria you have for your ideal home.
