Mortgage-rate locks for second homes fell 11% year over year in June after a year of double- and triple-digit increases.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

The number of buyers who locked in mortgage rates to purchase a second home nationwide fell 11.1% year over year in June, a reversal from the yearlong surge in demand for vacation homes driven by the pandemic. It\u2019s the first decline since April 2020 and follows more than a year of double- and triple-digit increases in mortgage-rate locks for second homes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Mortgage-rate locks for primary homes rose 1.8% year over year in June. Although that\u2019s a small increase, it marks the first time in over a year that growth for primary homes has surpassed that of second homes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

With the pandemic winding down, vacation-home demand is declining from the <\/span>peak<\/span><\/a> it reached earlier this year. Demand for second homes started surging in June 2020 as pandemic-related lockdowns and remote work made vacation destinations ultra-desirable and affluent buyers took advantage of low mortgage rates.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cDemand for second homes is dropping back down to earth as many employees return to the workplace this summer,\u201d said Taylor Marr<\/a>, Redfin\u2019s lead economist. \u201cThat return to the office, along with soaring prices and tighter lending standards for second homes, is shifting homebuyer demand in favor of primary residences. The allure of owning a vacation home outside the city still exists–as it did even before the pandemic–but the big second-home boom we\u2019ve seen over the last year is abating.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The drop in the year-over-year growth rate is somewhat exaggerated because mortgage-rate locks for second homes soared in June 2020. After accounting for the impact of the June 2020 surge, it\u2019s clear that demand for vacation homes is starting to slow down but is still slightly above pre-pandemic levels.<\/span><\/p>\n

The data in this report is based on a Redfin analysis of mortgage-rate lock data for home purchases from real estate analytics firm<\/span> Optimal Blue<\/span><\/a>.<\/span> A mortgage-rate lock is an agreement between a homebuyer and a lender that allows the homebuyer to lock in an interest rate on a mortgage for a certain period of time, offering protection against future interest-rate hikes. Homebuyers must specify whether they are applying to secure a mortgage rate for a primary home, a second home or an investment property. Roughly<\/span> 80%<\/span><\/a> of mortgage-rate locks result in actual home purchases.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The price-growth gap between seasonal and non-seasonal towns has narrowed since the height of the pandemic<\/h4>\n

Home prices in seasonal towns, where second homes are often located, rose 28% year over year in June to $468,000. June marks the 12th month in a row of 10%-plus year-over-year price growth for homes in seasonal towns.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWith workplaces making their remote work policies permanent and employees feeling more confident making long-term decisions, many Americans are moving full time to scenic vacation towns rather than purchasing second homes,\u201d said Redfin Chief Economist Daryl Fairweather<\/a>. \u201cThat\u2019s one reason why demand for second homes is waning while seasonal areas remain popular. My family is one example of the trend: Partly because I\u2019m able to work remotely, my family sold our house in Seattle<\/a> and moved full time to Lake Geneva, WI<\/a> to be closer to family and take advantage of its relaxed lifestyle and recreational activities.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Meanwhile, home prices in non-seasonal towns were up 26% to $421,000. The price-growth gap between seasonal and non-seasonal towns has narrowed since the height of the pandemic. The discrepancy peaked in September 2020, when prices in seasonal towns increased 22% year over year, versus 13% for non-seasonal towns.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For this analysis, a seasonal town is defined as an area where more than 30% of housing is used for seasonal or recreational purposes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
