The American Dream starts with a home of one's own, so don't expect Americans to stop buying houses any time soon (or renting apartments while pursuing said Dream). The market can be a scary place for first-time homeowners and others who don't understand how real estate works, so you can rest assured that there will be a job for you. 

Your services will be in even greater demand any time the economy is on an upward trend, which may be why the biz is projected to grow by eleven percent over the coming decade (source).

Of course, there are guaranteed to be those less-than-stellar times when it seems like everyone's losing their job and moving out of town. Just stick with it; eventually that roller coaster will start its uphill climb again.
