Survey Reveals Nearly 4 in 10 Americans Fear Housing Market Crash in 2025

A recent LendingTree survey sheds light on Americans’ sentiment toward the housing market, with 38% of respondents believing the market is at risk of crashing in the next year. This concern cuts across various demographics, reflecting broader economic uncertainty.

The survey, conducted in October 2024, highlights generational and financial divides in perceptions. Younger generations and households with lower incomes are more likely to fear a downturn, while higher-income earners and older respondents appear less concerned. With headlines still buzzing about affordability challenges and mortgage rates, these results suggest lingering worries about market stability.

As always, whether the market soars or dips, having an experienced professional on your side is key. If you’re looking to buy or sell in the St. Louis area, the team at MORE, REALTORS®
