Home Sales Are COLLAPSING as Mortgage Rates Stay High

Home sales are falling at one of the fastest rates we've seen in years, and the culprit is simple: higher mortgage rates. In this video, I break down the latest housing market data, why home sales continue to weaken, and how rising borrowing costs are creating a massive affordability squeeze for buyers across the country. We'll also look at the growing gap between inventory and demand, why home price forecasts are being revised lower, and what this means for homeowners, buyers, investors, and real estate agents heading into the second half of 2026. The housing market isn't crashing everywhere, but the data suggests the slowdown is accelerating. 📊 Topics Covered: • New home sales trends • Mortgage rates and affordability • Home price forecast revisions • Inventory growth • Buyer demand trends • Florida and national housing market data • What happens next Read my Substack for what I can’t say here: jonbrooks.substack.com e: [email protected] w: movewithmomentum.com **Disclaimer**: This video reflects my personal opinions based on my experience and research.
