Goldman Sachs forecasts housing market freeze through 2027

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Goldman Sachs economists predict a prolonged freeze in the U.S. housing market, with existing-home sales expected to remain significantly below 2019 levels through 2027. This forecast is driven by "lock-in" effects, where homeowners with low mortgage rates are disincentivized from selling and buying at higher current rates. The analysis highlights a growing economic divide among millennials, with early buyers accumulating substantial wealth while younger millennials face affordability challenges due to high interest rates and student debt.
