🏡 Housing Market Shift Ahead: What Warren Buffett Sees & How TMOD™ Is Responding
Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices recently highlighted big shifts on the horizon for the U.S. housing market:
-
Existing-home inventory is expected to rise ~12% in 2025—from current low levels YouTube+4Norada Real Estate+4Instagram+4
-
Mortgage rates are predicted to stay around 6.5%, continuing to throttle affordability for many buyers Norada Real Estate
🧠 What This Means
-
More homes on the market usually means more choices—but also more price pressure, especially at entry price points.
-
Sustained mortgage rates will limit who can buy, increasing the need for more accessible housing solutions.
🔍 Opportunity for TMOD™
At TMOD™, we believe modular housing offers a real answer. Here's how we’re aligning with–and responding to–these trends:

| Higher inventory but fewer buyers | Focus on cost-effective modular solutions that reduce total monthly payments despite higher rates |
| Mortgages remain expensive | Modular standardization helps lower overall loan amounts via faster build times and fewer surprises |
| Buyers still seeking affordable options | Our offsite planning + feasibility processes ensure streamlined budgets and fewer contingencies |
| Growing need for multi-unit affordability | TMOD™ supports ADUs, duplexes, cottage courts, and BTR solutions to meet diverse housing demand |
