As the only AI-Certified Realtor in Summit County, I’m here to guide you with data-driven strategies and advanced tools most traditional agents don’t even know exist. This market may be shifting—but that doesn’t mean you have to navigate it alone. Let’s explore what’s really going on, and how you can move forward with confidence in Breckenridge and beyond.

If you’ve been watching the housing market this year, you’ve probably noticed a few changes—and maybe you’re wondering what’s next. Will prices drop? Are mortgage rates going to improve? Should you wait or make a move now?

Let’s break it all down in plain English, so you can feel confident about your next step.

Are Home Prices Dropping?

A lot of buyers are holding out, hoping home prices will finally fall. And yes, in some places, prices are cooling off a bit—but we’re not talking about a crash.

Here’s what’s really happening:

• Home price growth is slowing, but that just means we’re not seeing the crazy jumps we had in previous years.

• According to top experts, prices are still expected to rise by about 1.5% to 2% nationally in 2025.

• A few areas might see slight price drops (around -3.5%), but that’s a long way from the 20% plunge we saw during the 2008 crash.

So, if you're waiting for a big dip to “score a deal,” the data says that's probably not going to happen.

And here’s something to keep in mind: home values have gone up over 55% nationwide in the last five years. Even if prices cool in some areas, the long-term trend is still strong.

Will Mortgage Rates Drop?

This is the big question for a lot of buyers: should I wait for rates to go down before I buy?

Well, here’s the reality: experts say we probably won’t see a big drop anytime soon. In fact, most projections have mortgage rates staying right around where they are now—in the mid-6% range—through the rest of 2025.

Waiting for the perfect rate might mean missing out on the right home. And if you buy now, there’s always the option to refinance later if rates do dip.
