2025 promises to be a transformative year for the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate">U.S. housing market</a>, offering fresh opportunities but also keeping everyone on their toes. 
Zillow Group Inc's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ZG#NASDAQ">ZG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/Z#NASDAQ">Z</a>) latest <a href="https://www.zillow.com/research/2025-housing-predictions-34620/">predictions</a> reveal shifting dynamics for buyers, sellers, and renters. Investors in the Vanguard Real Estate ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VNQ#NYSE">VNQ</a>), the Schwab US REIT ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SCHH#NYSE">SCHH</a>), and the Real Estate Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLRE#NYSE">XLRE</a>) track these dynamics closely.

Here are five trends to watch closely:
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">1. Breathing Room For Buyers Amid A Modest Market</h2>
Good news for buyers: more inventory is set to hit the market, giving you time to weigh options and negotiate harder. Zillow forecasts a modest 2.6% home value growth and an uptick in existing home sales to 4.3 million, signaling a gradual thaw in a market that's been tight for years.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">2. Mortgage Rate Whiplash</h2>
Mortgage rates will remain the wildcard. While Zillow expects rates to ease overall, their volatility could unsettle even seasoned buyers. Expect refinancing booms during dips and a roller-coaster affordability picture throughout the year.
Investors in the iShares MBS ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MBB#NYSE">MBB</a>) and the Vanguard Mortgage-Backed Securities ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VMBS#NYSE">VMBS</a>) may face heightened uncertainty.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">3. Buyers Markets Spread Westward</h2>
Currently concentrated in the Southeast, buyers markets are predicted to expand into the Southwest, giving buyers more power in negotiations. 
If mortgage rates fall significantly, however, sellers might regain the upper hand as competition heats up.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">4. The Rise of Smaller, Smarter Homes</h2>
Forget large mansions. Compact, purpose-driven homes are taking center stage. Listings describing properties as "cozy" have surged 35%, reflecting a cultural shift toward sustainable, affordable living. Urban condos are also stabilizing in value, according to Zillow, drawing buyers back to city life.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">5. Renter Perks Are On Borrowed Time</h2>
A surge in multifamily construction has made 2024 a renter-friendly year, with concessions like free rent and parking aplenty. But Zillow predicts these perks will wane by late 2025 as the rental market tightens. Renters with pets will remain a dominant force, pushing property managers to adopt more pet-friendly policies or risk losing tenants.
2025's housing market is set to be more active and buyer-friendly, but unpredictability looms large. From mortgage rate swings to shifting buyer trends, staying agile and informed will be key to making the most of this evolving landscape.

Revenue was $581 million versus estimates of $555 million.
Our team of technical analysts made Zillow our Stock of the Day because it illustrates a common dynamic in the market that savvy traders use to profit.
As you can see on the chart, in February and early March levels around $58.50 were resistance for the stock. In September this resistance was broken. Then the stock eventually fell back to the $58.50 level that was previously resistance converted into support.
The same thing happened at the $53.70 level. It was resistance in July and converted to support at the beginning of September.
At the end of September, the $68.40 level was resistance — and now it has become a support level.

Price levels resistant converting into support is a common occurrence in not just the stock markets, but in all financial markets.
It happens because of &#8220;seller's remorse.&#8221;
There are investors and traders who sell while the stock is at resistance who think they made a good decision if the price trends lower after. But if the trend reverses, the resistance is broken and the price moves higher, many who sold come to regret their decision to do so.
Some of these remorseful sellers vow to buy their shares back.
But they will only do so if they can buy them for the same price they were sold. So as a result, if the stock eventually falls back to the selling price they place buy orders.
If there are enough of these orders it will cause support to form at the price that had previously been resistance.
If a stock is trending lower and a trader is looking for insight into where to buy it, they should look at price levels that had previously been resistance. There is a good chance the stock finds support at them. They may even reverse and rally.

Here's a closer look at what to expect from Zillow in its third-quarter earnings.
What To Know: In the second quarter, Zillow reported total revenue of $572 million, comfortably above Wall Street&#8217;s forecast of $537.6 million. This represented a 13% year-over-year growth, driven by strong performance across multiple segments. 
The company&#8217;s residential revenue rose by 8% year-over-year to $409 million, while its rentals revenue surged by 29% to $117 million. Notably, mortgage revenue saw a substantial 42% increase, reaching $34 million, which underscores Zillow's success in diversifying its revenue streams and capitalizing on demand across different facets of the real estate market.

This rise in visits signals sustained interest in Zillow's offerings, particularly as it continues to build out its &#8220;housing super app,&#8221; a comprehensive platform designed to streamline the real estate experience for users.
Additionally, the second quarter marked a significant leadership change, with Zillow promoting COO Jeremy Wacksman to CEO, replacing co-founder Rich Barton, who will transition to co-executive chair.
In his comments following the second quarter earnings report, Wacksman underscored Zillow's commitment to long-term profitability and reiterated the company&#8217;s goal of achieving double-digit revenue growth and an expanded Adjusted EBITDA margin by 2024.
What Else: Looking ahead to the third quarter, Zillow provided revenue guidance of $545 million to $560 million, above analyst consensus estimates of $538 million. The company anticipates residential revenue to land between $375 million and $385 million.
Adjusted EBITDA is expected to range from $95 million to $110 million, reflecting Zillow's focus on balancing growth and profitability amid a competitive landscape. For the third quarter, Zillow also projects rental revenue growth in the mid-20% range year-over-year, driven by strong demand in the multifamily segment, which is expected to outpace overall rental revenue growth.
Zillow's management has indicated an industry-wide increase in transaction value, with expectations for mid-single-digit growth in total transaction value in the U.S. residential real estate sector for the third quarter, compared to the 3% year-over-year growth seen in the second quarter. This outlook aligns with Zillow's projection of continued traction in the residential market, even as broader economic uncertainties persist.
Overall, the third quarter will serve as a pivotal quarter for Zillow, as it seeks to maintain its momentum in revenue growth, strengthen its digital real estate ecosystem and execute its strategic vision under new leadership.

Looking At Zillow Gr's Recent Unusual Options Activity

One college dropout brings in about $2 million per year, signing long-term leases on apartments and renting them out to others <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/short-term-rentals-vs-long-term-rentals">for shorter durations</a>.
What To Know:&nbsp;Inspired by&nbsp;Robert Kiyosaki&#8217;s&nbsp;&#8220;Rich Dad Poor Dad,&#8221;&nbsp;Derek Cheung&nbsp;dropped out of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/05/32192751/skip-harvard-just-follow-the-money-learn-the-moves-leading-harvard-grads-to-turn-down-300k-salaries">college</a>&nbsp;and started a rental arbitrage business in 2019. A couple of years later, he had built up a portfolio of leases on&nbsp;more than 50 properties, which generate&nbsp;over $750,000 in net income&nbsp;annually, per&nbsp;<a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/real-estate-investing-six-figures-annually-without-owning-property-2022-8?utm_campaign=business-sf&amp;utm_source=facebook&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;fbclid=IwAR0MGwqxISXFai0vXeBRr-RnfP4lNVsowTBmWBbwMtp299jzeiheWVMA1E8">Business Insider</a>.
Cheung got started by consuming as much information on rental arbitration as he could find. The strategy involves making a profit on the difference between what it costs to rent a property long-term&nbsp;and what someone is willing to pay for that same property in the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/short-term-rentals">short-term rental market</a>.
After searching housing websites like&nbsp;Zillow Group&nbsp;Inc&nbsp;(NASDAQ:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/zg#NASDAQ">ZG</a>) (NASDAQ:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/z#NASDAQ">Z</a>) for available occupancy in his local area, Cheung began calling landlords to see who might be interested in renting to a rental-arbitrage operator.&nbsp;
In early 2019, he signed a pair of one-year leases: a one-bedroom apartment for about $1,200 a month and a studio for about $1,000 a month. He spent approximately $5,000 furnishing the two units and then posted the pair&nbsp;on&nbsp;Airbnb&nbsp;Inc (NASDAQ:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/abnb#NASDAQ">ABNB</a>). He got a hit right away.

&#8220;I was insanely excited and it was pretty much like instant. As soon as I listed, someone was inquiring,&#8221; Cheung said.
He started generating about $4,000 per month on<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/04/31687018/couple-uses-huge-airbnb-profits-to-buy-time-they-only-spend-1-hour-working-per-week">&nbsp;Airbnb&nbsp;</a>from the two units, leaving him with close to $1,500 a month in profit. A few months later, he landed a 60-day rental in one of his units from a construction manager who was looking to find short-term housing for more than 30 other workers.&nbsp;
He got right to work looking for other properties he could lease long-term, and then&nbsp;rent to the workers who were going to be staying in town for two months working on&nbsp;a construction project.&nbsp;
He was able to land three three-bedroom houses and&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/living/best-duplex-house-plans/">a duplex</a>&nbsp;that had a total of six rooms. He quickly set up one-year leases and&nbsp;furnished the places before the construction crew made it to town.&nbsp;
&#8220;It was pretty scary having $10,000 a month in liability and rent expenses,&#8221; Cheung said.
He soon found himself netting about $4,000 a month in profit from the construction crew&#8217;s stay, and then he began targeting other&nbsp;construction crews that would be coming to town and looking for similar short-term housing opportunities.&nbsp;
As his operation scaled, he couldn&#8217;t keep up with all the maintenance, so he hired a cleaning crew to take over in between listings. Then the pandemic hit.&nbsp;
In 2020 the travel industry took a turn&nbsp;as a result of COVID-19 lockdowns. He managed to survive the year by&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/03/31342788/26-year-old-gets-paid-to-live-in-a-luxury-tiny-home-in-her-own-backyard">renting out his properties</a>&nbsp;for slightly longer periods of time, and by early 2021 he stepped into a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/03/31222881/billionaire-warren-buffett-still-lives-in-a-1920s-house-he-paid-31k-for">buyer&#8217;s market</a>.&nbsp;
He ultimately arranged leases for multiple units, occasionally&nbsp;inking deals that included one or two months of free rent. By the end of 2021, he had leases on over 50 properties and occupancy jumped back up.&nbsp;
&#8220;That was probably the biggest challenge I faced in my time with the Airbnb business, was taking it through COVID, and obviously I did get through,&#8221; Cheung said.&nbsp;
In 2021, Cheung&#8217;s business generated gross profits of close to $2 million. His expenses for the year came in at approximately $1.25 million, leaving him with about&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/03/31224036/22-year-old-bought-coin-operated-car-wash-that-basically-runs-itself-and-generates-more-than-65k-a-y">$750,000 in net profit</a>.&nbsp;
