In this brief market commentary, Jay Quigley addresses the anxiety and optimism surrounding a potential home‑price crash. He cites a recent Fannie Mae survey of over 100 housing experts, which shows a clear consensus that U.S. home prices will continue to rise over the next five years rather than fall. The average expert forecast predicts a 14.7% increase in national home prices by 2030, and even the most pessimistic experts still expect a 6.6% rise. Quigley notes that while a few local markets might experience modest declines, the overall national trend is upward. He concludes by inviting viewers to DM him for personalized insights about their local market and whether buying now remains a good decision.
