Happy New Year What Did the Housing Market Look Like in 2021

As 2021 comes to a close, it’s the perfect time to reflect back on this year’s housing market. Unsurprisingly, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there’s been a notable rise in housing prices. Between August 2020 and August 2021, home prices have risen by nearly 20% in the United States. That’s an even steeper rise than the period that led to the meltdown in 2008. Once the fall arrived, however, these rising costs seemed to slow down a bit. There’s more inventory entering the market now, and that means fewer bidding wars are taking place.
