Many buyers are waiting on the sidelines, hoping that 2026 will finally bring more affordable home prices and lower mortgage rates. But affordability isn’t driven by one factor — it’s the result of interest rates, inventory levels, wages, lending standards, and long-term supply constraints.
In this video, we break down whether homebuying is likely to become more affordable in 2026, what factors could help or hurt buyers, and why waiting for the “perfect” market can backfire. This is a reality-based look at what buyers should actually plan for — not hype or predictions built on wishful thinking.
If you’re considering buying in the next year or two, this video will help you understand how affordability really works and how to position yourself strategically instead of emotionally.
Waiting for affordability without a plan can cost more than buying strategically.
