DMV Spotlight on 12-28-25 shines a light on the Real Estate outlook for the region heading into 2026. Bright MLS Chief Real Estate Economist Lisa Sturtevant expects a slowing in the pace of home sale transactions as well as slower home growth. Sturtevant expects a modest decline, even in the region’s median home price pointing to on-going uncertainty around the federal government that she says suggests weaker demand in the larger DC Metro area.

She also notes a continued drop in mortgage interest rates that may give buyers a needed boost.
