Here's a number worth sitting with: as of late 2025, the U.S. homeownership rate stands at 65.7%.

That's roughly two out of every three households.

And it's held steady—even through elevated mortgage rates and shifting market conditions.

What that tells us is that homeownership is still deeply woven into how Americans build their financial lives. It remains one of the most common ways families create memories and connect with the community.

If you're among those two-thirds, this month is a good moment to reflect on what that decision has meant for your household. If you're working toward it, know that millions of others have walked that same road.

June is National Homeownership Month—a time to recognize what homeownership means to millions of Americans.

It's more than a roof and four walls. For many families, it's where milestones happen. First steps, first dinners around your own table, the feeling of pulling into a driveway that's yours.

According to a 2025 Coldwell Banker survey, 85% of Americans still consider owning a home a key part of the American Dream.

That says something.

Whether you've owned for decades or you're still working toward it, this month is about honoring that aspiration and the meaning behind it. 🏡

Tax reminder! Your second-quarter estimated income tax payment is due on June 16, 2026.

If you're self-employed or earn income that isn't subject to withholding, now is the time to make sure your payment is on track. Don't wait until the last minute—a missed or underpaid estimated tax payment can mean penalties come filing season.

Not sure how much to pay? A good rule of thumb is to pay at least 90% of what you'll owe this year, or 100% of last year's tax liability—whichever is smaller. If you want more specific information, check with your tax, legal, or accounting professional.
