🏡 Are you wondering if the upcoming election will affect your plans to buy or sell a home? Let’s break it down!
In this video, Jonathan Owens from Owens Realty Team powered by Fathom Realty explains how elections typically impact the housing market. Historically, elections have had only a minor effect on housing decisions, and here’s what you can expect:
- Sales Activity: Home sales might slow down in November during election years but usually pick up in December and rise the following year.
- Home Prices: Prices tend to increase in the year after an election.
- Mortgage Rates: Rates often decrease from July to November in election years, making homebuying more affordable.
🔑 Key Takeaway: Presidential elections have a small and temporary impact on the housing market, so for most buyers and sellers, your plans shouldn’t be affected.
