On a recent episode of Real Estate News for Investors, Kathy Fettke explains how soaring home prices, strained affordability, and tight inventory are sidelining many potential buyers and weakening confidence in the housing market. She highlights new IPX1031 data showing growing pessimism about homeownership: 62% of Americans say buying a home in 2026 feels unrealistic, a sharp jump from last year.
Fettke breaks down the forces behind the affordability crunch, why rental demand remains elevated, and how responsible landlords are essential to providing safe, affordable, and stable housing.
