Now that the 2025 hurricane season has officially begun, according to NOAA, a new and growing concern is emerging for homeowners along the U.S. coast -- especially in an already tight housing market with historically low inventory.
According to new data released by the National Association of Realtors, existing-home sales dipped again in April 2025, reflecting ongoing challenges in the U.S. housing market despite growing inventory and continued buyer interest.
In a notable shift in the housing market, baby boomers have surpassed millennials as the largest generational group of home buyers, according to the National Association of Realtors (NAR).
According to national brokerage Redfin, U.S. homebuyers currently have the most options available since 2020. However, rising housing costs are deterring many from making purchases, making monthly mortgage payments increasingly difficult.
