Election Year Worries? Here’s the Real Market Impact

October 4, 2024

With an election year approaching, some may worry about its impact on the housing market. While policy changes and interest rates are often discussed, historical data shows stability in home prices.

In fact, after 7 of the last 8 presidential elections, home prices increased. This trend suggests that election years do not lead to a downturn in the housing market. Instead, the market remains steady, and often, home values continue to rise.

So, if you’re considering buying or selling, there’s no need to let election year worries hold you back. The best time to make your move is when it works for you and your unique situation.

Lean and listen… I have loved all seasons of motherhood, and being a grandma is next level amazing! I had a day date with my grand girls—that was so fun!

These two fill my cup 💚.

✔️ Trampoline park with Lucy
✔️ Holding baby June
✔️ Target trip for princess bandaids
✔️ Chick Fil A drive through due to toddler meltdown
✔️ Sing Trolls soundtrack at the top of our lungs
✔️ Power Nap for me after 😴

Lesson learned: don’t wear a sweater to the trampoline park! It was getting hot up in here.

Think about it: a closed fist limits what you can hold and what you can give. An open hand? It’s an invitation for abundance, connection, and the chance to serve.
