Home Price Appreciation, An Educated Guess

Each quarter, Pulsenomics surveys a national panel of over 100 economists, real estate experts, and investment and market strategists to compile projections for the future of home price appreciation.

This graph shows the rate of appreciation can moderate over the next few years as the market shifts from its unsustainable pace. After this year, there are projections showing home price appreciation will continue, but at levels that are more typical for the market.

Lawrence Yun, Chief Economist at the National Association of Realtors (NAR)

“People should not anticipate another double-digit price appreciation. Those days are over. . . . We may return to more normal price appreciation of 4%, 5% a year.”
