📊 Mortgage rates rose to 6.89% this week, up from 6.81% last week. More conflict involving Iran pushed oil prices higher, adding to inflation concerns. The jobs report also came in much stronger than expected, but its effect on rates was relatively limited compared to the broader inflation concerns.

📅 CPI and PPI will be released next week.

📊 Southern California Housing Market Update: September 4, 2026 🏡

📅 118 Days Expected Market Time (+2 Days WoW)
🏠 38,815 Active Listings (-2% WoW)
📈 9,888 Demand (-3% WoW)

The Autumnal Equinox may not arrive until later this month, but the Autumn Market is already underway for housing. Supply appears to have peaked several weeks ago and is now steadily declining alongside demand. For now, Expected Market Time is not changing dramatically. 🍂

Over the past week, supply fell by 2% while demand declined by 3%. With demand falling slightly faster, Expected Market Time increased from 116 to 118 days, reflecting a modest slowdown in market speed.

If the post-COVID housing market has taught us anything, it is that rates matter and no two years behave exactly the same. Follow our Weekly Mortgage Rate Tracker for a breakdown of where rates moved and what drove the change. 📊🏡

🚨 New Article: The New Housing Playbook 🚨

The housing market has changed, and the old playbook no longer works.

Gone are the days when buyers could rely on the rhythms of the post-Great Recession market, or sellers could expect the bidding wars of the pandemic era. Today’s market requires a different approach.

Buyers need realistic expectations. Sellers need patience, preparation, and precision pricing. Both sides need to understand that success is no longer automatic.

In this new article, Brennen Thomas with Reports On Housing breaks down why today’s market requires a new playbook and how buyers and sellers can better navigate the current housing landscape.
