2025 will mark a resurgence in home listings and sales in the U.S. real estate market after years of stagnation, according to the Agency founder and CEO Mauricio Umansky. Though some uncertainties in the real estate market remain, such as when and by how much interest rates will drop, Umansky said we are finally going to see some movement.
In 2025, "there's definitely going to be a transaction volume increase. Everything is going to start going into the right direction," Umansky said. He said the firm believes there is going to be an increase in supply and lower interest rates, though the exact rate will depend on broader economic factors. According to the report, inventory had already climbed 66.67% from January to November 2024 compared to the same period the previous year.
