As mortgage rates decline, many buyers, especially first-timers, may find more purchasing power, although high home prices and limited housing inventory are expected to continue influencing affordability. In particular, home prices may rise in certain areas, especially where inventory is tight, although some coastal regions like Florida may see price declines due to climate risk concerns and affordability issues
