As we look ahead, most economists believe mortgage rates will hold steady or even rise slightly, putting more weight on price moderation as the key to making your next move possible.<\/p>\n<p>One positive sign: a gradually improving labour market is expected to support household incomes, while slower population growth could ease the pressure on home prices. That said, real estate remains deeply local.
