Housing market shifts toward buyers, but buyers aren't feeling it

Original: Housing market shifting toward buyers, but they’re still not feeling it

The US housing market is showing signs of tilting in buyers' favour, with more inventory and less frenzied competition than in recent years. Yet buyers themselves say the change is not translating into real relief, as elevated mortgage rates and still-high prices keep affordability strained. Commentators are debating whether conditions genuinely favour buyers or whether the shift remains mostly theoretical for ordinary households.

Why now: Fresh data suggests a buyer's market is emerging while high rates and prices mean buyers see no benefit.
