The number of U.S. home sales in the United States declined in 2024, after soaring in 2021. A total of four million transactions of existing homes, including single-family, condo, and co-ops, were completed in 2024, down from 6.12 million in 2021. According to the forecast, the housing market is forecast to head for recovery in 2025, despite transaction volumes expected to remain below the long-term average. Why have home sales declined? The housing boom during the coronavirus pandemic has demonstrated that being a homeowner is still an integral part of the American dream. Nevertheless, sentiment declined in the second half of 2022 and Americans across all generations agreed that the time was not right to buy a home. A combination of factors has led to house prices rocketing and making homeownership unaffordable for the average buyer. A survey among owners and renters found that the high home prices and unfavorable economic conditions were the two main barriers to making a home purchase. People who would like to purchase their own home need to save up a deposit, have a good credit score, and a steady and sufficient income to be approved for a mortgage. In 2022, mortgage rates experienced the most aggressive increase in history, making the total cost of homeownership substantially higher. Are U.S. home prices expected to fall? The median sales price of existing homes stood at 413,000 U.S. dollars in 2024 and was forecast to increase slightly until 2026. The development of the S&P/Case Shiller U.S. National Home Price Index shows that home prices experienced seven consecutive months of decline between June 2022 and January 2023, but this trend reversed in the following months. Despite mild fluctuations throughout the year, home prices in many metros are forecast to continue to grow, albeit at a much slower rate.

The online residential home sale listings industry is experiencing significant changes in its dynamics because of the increased number of homes for sale. The growth in listings is because of various factors, including a climb in the number of homeowners choosing to sell, the easing of the mortgage rate lock-in effect, and economic concerns driving the sale of investment properties. These conditions and the shift from a seller's market towards a more balanced, or even a buyer's market, translate into increased traffic and engagement on home sale platforms. This presents an opportunity for these online platforms to enhance their user experience, refine search tools and offer data analytics to help buyers navigate the increased options. By the end of 2025, industry revenue has climbed at a CAGR of 3.0% and is expected to total $2.2 billion in 2025. In 2025, revenue is expected to strengthen by an estimated 4.2%. Despite enjoying growth, the industry faces challenges with the elevated mortgage rates reducing demand for home purchases, leading to a market freeze. Despite the gain in home listings, actual transaction volumes have remained subdued, creating a challenging environment for the online residential home sale listing platforms. To stay competitive, these platforms are pivoting to offer enhanced tools for price comparisons, real-time mortgage calculators and in-depth educational content to help buyers understand the increased cost of borrowing and also navigate the high inventory but low turnover market. Industry profit has climbed as revenue has outpaced wage growth through the end of 2025. Through the end of 2030, online platforms must position themselves for demographic shifts and changing consumer preferences. Gen Z and younger millennials, who are entering homebuying age, are demanding a more tech-driven, seamless and mobile-first experience. The industry will also continue to see online platforms transform into comprehensive, one-stop digital destinations offering integrated services for every stage of the housing journey. Embracing changes such as artificial intelligence and data analytics to enhance user experience, streamlining listings uploads and offering real-time communication between buyers, sellers, and agents will be crucial for future success. Platforms that offer user-friendly, one-stop experiences and are equipped to provide advanced, feature-rich mobile experiences are set to capture greater market share. Overall, industry revenue will gain at a CAGR of 3.3% through 2030 to total $2.6 billion.
