Mortgage rates are projected to remain elevated through 2026, with the Mortgage Bankers Association forecasting rates as high as 6.5% and Fannie Mae anticipating levels around 5.9%. This prolonged period of high borrowing costs marks the most sustained increase in over two decades.

Experts suggest rates must drop to at least 5.75% to revive buyer demand. Despite expected Federal Reserve rate cuts, the housing market faces continued stagnation. The sector's sluggish performance threatens broader economic growth, given its significant role in construction and consumer spending.
