What a Government Shutdown Really Means for the Housing Market

A government shutdown can cause short-term delays for some buyers, but it doesn’t derail the housing market. The last time this happened, sales picked back up as soon as the government re-opened.

If you’re unsure how this might affect your plans, or just want to make sense of what’s happening, let’s connect.

There’s been a lot of talk lately about how a government shutdown impacts the housing market. You might be wondering: Is it causing everything to grind to a halt?

Buying a home when you have student loans is possible.
Data shows 32% of first-time buyers have student debt. And the typical amount is $30,000.

So, if you’ve been holding off on buying your first home because you thought you had to pay off those loans first.

Or, because you assumed it just wasn’t possible for you to buy, it’s time to talk to a lender.

Why Your Home Equity Still Puts You Way Ahead

Even with prices coming down in some markets, today’s homeowners are still sitting on near record amounts of equity.

If you’re wondering how much equity you have (or how far ahead you really are), let’s connect.

You might be surprised by what your home is actually worth today.

If you’ve seen headlines about home prices dropping, it’s easy to wonder what that means for the value of your home too. Here’s what you really need to know.

A government shutdown can cause some short-term delays, but it doesn’t stop the housing market.

During the last 35-day shutdown, home sales dipped briefly, then bounced right back once the government reopened.

It’s a good reminder that real estate keeps moving, even when things feel uncertain. The market has a way of finding its footing again.

Seeing headlines about home prices dropping? Don’t panic.

First of all, prices are still rising in much of the country, just at a slower pace.

But even in the select metros where prices are down slightly, it’s not a red flag. It’s a signal prices are normalizing after several years of rapid appreciation.
Here's a stat to put those drops into perspective.

Over the past 5 years, home prices rose by 45% nationwide.

The cities seeing drops right now are only down an average of 4%.

That doesn’t come close to erasing the big gains most homeowners had since 2020.

So, don’t let the headlines rattle your confidence. Chances are, you probably still have a lot more equity than you realize.

Want to know how much? DM me and I'll run the numbers.

Why Some Homes Sell Quickly – and Others Don’t Sell at All

There are more homes for sale today than there were even just a year ago, but that doesn’t have to work against you.

When your house is priced right, shows well, and is marketed effectively, it will sell. Let’s connect if you want to know how to make that happen in our market this fall.

A few years ago, inventory hit a record low. Just about anything sold – and fast. But now, there are far more homes on the market.

Why You Don’t Need To Be Afraid of Today’s Mortgage Rates

If moving at today’s rate scares you, remember, waiting doesn’t always pay off. Once rates dip below 6%, as some experts project they’ll do next year, more buyers (and higher prices) will be back.

So, don’t be afraid of today’s mortgage rates. Because if you’re ready, this might just be your chance to make your move before the market wakes up again.

Mortgage rates have been the monster under the bed for a while. Every time they tick up, people flinch and say, “Maybe I’ll wait.” But here’s the twist. Waiting for that perfect 5-point-something rate could end up haunting your wallet later.
