Why the Housing Market Feels So Confusing Right Now


🏡 Why the Housing Market Feels So Confusing Right Now

If you're feeling like the housing market doesn't make sense—you're not alone.

Here’s what’s really happening:

There are two markets at play right now:

  1. Existing Homes – There's still not enough for sale. Many homeowners are staying put because they locked in super low mortgage rates in recent years. That means low supply, which keeps prices steady or rising.

  2. New Construction – Builders are adding more homes, and they're often more willing to offer incentives (like paying closing costs or giving upgrades) to help buyers close the deal.

🔑 What This Means for You:
You might have more wiggle room and options with new builds, but existing homes may offer charm or location advantages—and they’re still holding value.

💡 Takeaway:
Every home buying journey is unique. The “right” choice comes down to your budget, timeline, and preferences. A mortgage professional can help you explore the smartest move in your market.
