  2. What’s really scary about buying a home in 2025?

    What’s really scary about buying a home in 2025?

    The U.S. housing market is facing several “spooky” challenges. Rising costs, higher interest rates, and a growing economic uncertainty are presenting a scary reality homeowners and buyers. These factors are shaping affordability and the way people approach buying and owning a home. - Property taxes have gone up about 30% on average across the U.S. This increase amounts to roughly $1,000 a year for some households. - Rising interest rates are a primary driver of higher rents. When mortgage rates increase, they price out potential homeowners, which increases rental demand. - If a recession occurs, delinquency rates and foreclosures could go up, but they are currently very low.

Technology has promised speed, but it hasn’t delivered confidence. - Trust in technology doesn’t map neatly to age or buyer stage. It has to do with AI literacy. - People still want people to bridge gaps, build trust, and lead to confident decisions.
