But waiting out this market may not be the best approach for buyers ready and able to buy now."

"What is surprising is that rising rates normally push out potential homebuyers, but they have also pushed out potential sellers," Divounguy told Insider. With less housing inventory being introduced to the market, home prices are likely to remain high.
