The 2026 Downsizing Market Explained Simply

December 10th, 2025 9:34 PM by Shane Greene

If you’re thinking about selling, the 2026 market brings both opportunity and strategy.

Inventory remains limited in many areas, which means well-prepared homes still attract strong buyer activity. At the same time, many empty nesters hold significant equity, giving them flexibility that first-time buyers don’t have.

For downsizers, the key is timing: strategically preparing your home to maximize value while identifying the right next property that fits your lifestyle and budget.

Understanding the current market can help you make smart choices—not rushed ones.
