Is the housing market cooling? Are homeowners still in a strong financial position? And what does this mean for real estate investors heading into 2026? Tune in for a concise update on housing market trends, real estate wealth, mortgage debt, and the overall strength of U.S. household balance sheets. 🏘️ Want to watch Kathy Fettke's Housing Market Forecast?
