Home equity has also increased during this time period due to both rising home prices and homeowners paying down their mortgage balances. In 2012, the median homeowner had $66,000 in equity (39% of their home's value). By 2016, that figure had risen to $85,000 (44% of their home's value).

And for sellers, they are able to sell their homes for a higher price than they would have just a few years ago while also having more equity to put towards their next purchase.
