The U.S. housing market is shaped by national forces — interest rates, inflation, lending standards, government policy, construction trends, and shifting buyer behavior. These changes often happen fast, and headlines don’t always tell the full story.
This National Real Estate Insights hub focuses on what’s happening right now across the country, why it matters, and how these trends may eventually ripple into local markets.

Why National Trends Still Matter
Even though real estate is local, national trends influence mortgage rates, buyer confidence, affordability, and supply everywhere. What starts as a national shift often becomes a local reality within months.
My goal with this section is not to predict headlines — but to explain what’s actually changing underneath them, using real data and historical perspective.
National Real Estate FAQ
Are these articles meant to be evergreen?
No. Most national market insights are time-bound. Some remain useful as historical reference points, but relevance fades as conditions change.
Should I rely on national headlines to make decisions?
Headlines alone are risky. National trends provide context, but decisions should always account for local market behavior and personal timing.
Why keep older national articles visible?
Patterns repeat. Looking back helps identify warning signs, behavioral shifts, and how markets reacted under similar conditions.
