Housing market: Community associations will continue to thrive in 2026
The housing market is expected to build on the gradual stabilization that began in 2025 this year and will see improvements in inventory, home sales, prices, and mortgage rates, according to 2026 predictions. In 2026, the Foundation for Community Association Research projects 3,000 to 4,000 new condominium communities and homeowners associations will be built, growing the total number of associations in the U.S. from approximately 373,000 at the end of 2025 to as many as 377,000 in 2026.
