Bigger isn't always better for homebuyers facing rising costs

_{//house-home.news-articles.net/content/2025/05/2 .. s-better-for-homebuyers-facing-rising-costs.html}
^{Published in House and Home on Wednesday, May 28th 2025 at 11:29 GMT by wjla}

The stats look bleak, but experts caution that if you can afford to buy, getting a smaller home is better than waiting on the sidelines.

The article from WJLA discusses the trend of homebuyers opting for smaller, more affordable homes over larger ones due to rising mortgage rates and home prices. It highlights that the median size of new single-family homes has decreased, with a significant portion of buyers now preferring homes under 2,000 square feet. The shift is driven by economic factors, as smaller homes are more budget-friendly and easier to maintain. Additionally, the article notes that builders are responding to this demand by constructing smaller homes, and it provides insights from real estate experts on the benefits of downsizing, such as lower utility costs and reduced environmental impact.
