Why the model sees it this way

Sialim's model forecasts the typical Riverton home value will hold near flat in September 2026, from $331,075 to about $331,373. The 80% confidence range runs from $330,381 to $332,144.

Prices rose an average of 0.36% per month over the past three months, and the market is up 0.4% from a year ago.

The 30-year mortgage rate sits near 6.7% (restrictive for affordability); for-sale inventory is about even with a year ago (+6%); national unemployment is 4.1%. For this metro the price-only model outperformed the macro-augmented one in backtesting, so the forecast leans on the price trend itself.

Over the most recent six-month test window, this model's predictions for Riverton were off by 0.6% on average. Smaller is better; anything under 1% is strong for monthly home values.
