Why the model sees it this way

Sialim's model forecasts the typical Manhattan home value will rise 0.3% in July 2026, from $272,809 to about $273,677. The 80% confidence range runs from $273,125 to $274,243.

Prices have been close to flat over the past three months (-0.04% per month on average), and the market is up 4.3% from a year ago.

The 30-year mortgage rate sits near 6.5% (elevated for affordability); for-sale inventory is about even with a year ago (+3%); national unemployment is 4.2%. These conditions feed into this metro's forecast, since the macro-augmented model beat the price-only model in backtesting here.

Over the most recent six-month test window, this model's predictions for Manhattan were off by 0.9% on average. Smaller is better; anything under 1% is strong for monthly home values.
