Impact of Iran War on US Housing Market

- Sales Forecast Downgrade: Zillow initially projected a 4.3% increase in existing home sales for 2026, but rising energy prices and inflation concerns have introduced new uncertainties, potentially reducing the sales growth to just 1.21%.
- New Construction Market Struggles: KB Home has lowered its full-year sales forecast following disappointing quarterly earnings, citing that net orders in Q1 fell below necessary levels, reflecting heightened consumer challenges exacerbated by the Middle East conflict.
- Supply-Demand Imbalance: The cancellation rate of home contracts has reached its highest since 2017, with approximately 13.7% of contracts canceled in February, resulting in over 600,000 more sellers than buyers in the market, creating a precarious and unstable housing environment.
