Why the model sees it this way

Sialim's model forecasts the typical Union City home value will rise 0.6% in September 2026, from $169,492 to about $170,585. The 80% confidence range runs from $170,168 to $171,102.

Prices rose an average of 0.49% per month over the past three months, and the market is up 7.3% 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 (+10%); national unemployment is 4.1%. 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 Union City were off by 1.2% on average. Smaller is better; anything under 1% is strong for monthly home values.
