The housing market feels like it's in chaos, with slow climbs in some places and sudden drops in others. Houses are staying for sale much longer than before, and in some big cities, sales are moving at their slowest pace in years. Some sellers are pulling their homes off the market, hoping for a better time to sell. New home builders are hitting the brakes, starting fewer houses and filing fewer permits, which means the special deals and upgrades they have been offering could soon be gone. A weaker jobs report recently led to a slight decline in mortgage rates, but not enough to prompt a surge of buyers. Experts say to watch three things closely: how long homes stay for sale, how many new homes are being built, and big news about jobs and prices. These clues will indicate whether the housing market is headed for a significant decline, a sudden surge, or further instability ahead.

The government is pushing to impose a two-year time limit on HUD rental assistance programs like Section 8, which would significantly impact millions of low-income families, especially working single mothers like Havalah Hopkins. The proposed policy shift aims to reduce long-term government support, but critics argue it would destabilize vulnerable households, increase homelessness, and discourage self-sufficiency rather than promote it. It's estimated that over 1.4 million households, mostly families with children, could lose their housing support under this plan. Landlords are also concerned that the change would add instability and cause them to back out of HUD contracts. We discuss how these changes could upend the lives of real people who rely on long-term housing assistance to survive.

Fewer people are buying newly built homes, even though prices are going down and more homes are for sale. In June, only a small number of new homes were sold, and that number was lower than last year. The average price for a new home dropped to about $401,800 because builders are making smaller, cheaper homes. There are now more new homes sitting on the market than at any time this past year, giving buyers more choices and less competition. Still, many people aren't buying because mortgage rates are high and homes are still too expensive for their income. Some sellers are taking their homes off the market instead of lowering prices. Although some builders offer deals to make monthly payments more affordable, they are not helping enough. Unless mortgage rates drop or people start making more money, home sales are likely to stay low.
