Home equity plays an important role in households' financial security and ability to purchase or upgrade homes. Home equity can be used to pay down debt or finance other expenses such as education or a new car. In addition, homeowners who have more equity in their homes are more likely to stay in their homes for longer periods of time and make larger down payments on mortgages than those who have less equity.

There are several factors that affect home prices and home equity: interest rates, supply and demand, economic conditions (such as inflation), local government policies (such as zoning laws), and demographic changes (such as increasing populations). Interest rates affect both buyers and sellers by influencing how much they must pay for a loan or mortgage relative to how much they could earn if they put that money into an investment such as stocks or bonds. Supply and demand also play a role by affecting how many houses are available for sale and how much buyers are willing to pay for them. Economic conditions can affect house prices by increasing demand for housing units when unemployment decreases or decreasing demand when there is an economic recession. Local government policies can also impact house prices by changing regulations on zoning laws (which can restrict the number of houses that can be built) or by providing incentives such as tax breaks for developers who build new housing units. Demographic changes can influence house prices by changing preferences among buyers (for example, young adults may prefer living near downtown areas while older adults may prefer suburban areas) or by increasing the number of people who want to live in certain areas (for example, due to gentrification).
