Confidence in Housing Market Remains At Record Highs

The FINANCIAL — Homeowners continue to feel better about the housing market than they have in years.

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 52% of American homeowners think the value of their home is likely to go up over the next year. That’s up from 49% last November and just short of the all-time high of 53% reached in October 2017. Ten years ago, just 20% were that optimistic. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

The survey of 725 American Homeowners was conducted on July 9-10, 2019 by Rasmussen Reports. The margin of sampling error is +/- 3.5 percentage points with a 95% level of confidence. Field work for all Rasmussen Reports surveys is conducted by Pulse Opinion Research, LLC. See methodology.
