Property Investment Trends in 2026

The property market in 2026 is expected to see steady growth, with home prices projected to rise around 4% following moderate gains in 2025. Mortgage rates are likely to remain in the 6% range or dip slightly as inflation eases, creating a more stable borrowing environment. The rental market is set to tighten as new multifamily construction slows, pushing rents up by 2–3%. Investors are showing increased interest in value-add condominium projects, which offer faster timelines and lower risk compared to new builds, as well as alternative real estate sectors like senior housing, student accommodations, medical facilities, and last-mile logistics, all of which are benefiting from strong demand and limited supply.
