Market Update

Finally, a good week for mortgage rates.

We’re seeing investors move out of tech and into safer assets like mortgage backed securities and the 10-year Treasury, pushing the Treasury below 5%, which is an encouraging sign for mortgage rates.

Right now we’re seeing:

* Conforming rates in the low 7s, with some options reaching the high 6s depending on the loan product.
* FHA and VA rates in the mid 6s.

Let’s hope this momentum continues. If you’ve been waiting for a better opportunity, now is a great time to revisit the numbers.

📉 Weekly Mortgage Rate Update

Despite inflation numbers coming in higher than expected this week, mortgage rates actually moved lower! 🎉

The 10-year Treasury yield settled around 5.1%, helping mortgage rates improve as well. It’s welcome news and a positive move we weren’t necessarily expecting.

Will the rally continue? We’ll be watching closely and keeping you updated!

Looking for a way to make the first few years of a mortgage payment more manageable?

A 2-1 buydown can use a seller credit to temporarily reduce your interest rate:

🏠 $500,000 loan at 7.25%
💰 $15,000 seller credit
📉 Year 1: 5.25% → save about $800/month
📉 Year 2: 6.25% → save about $400/month
📌 Year 3+: returns to the original 7.25% rate

That upfront savings can give buyers more breathing room while they plan for the long term, whether that means refinancing if the opportunity arises or exploring other ways to use available funds.

The right strategy depends on the loan and the buyer’s goals. Let’s run the numbers and see what makes sense for you.

The Fed just raised rates by a quarter of a percent. 📈

So what does that mean for mortgage rates?

We’re breaking down the immediate impact, what the Fed’s outlook could mean for the housing market, and what to watch for at the upcoming October and December meetings.

The Fed makes the headlines, but mortgage rates are influenced by much more than the Fed’s rate alone. 🏡

🚨 The Fed just raised rates. So what does that mean for mortgages?
The Federal Reserve increased its benchmark rate by 0.25% today, bringing the target range to 3.75%–4.00%.
But here’s the important part: mortgage rates do not move one-for-one with the Fed. Mortgage rates are driven more by the bond market, inflation, economic data and investor expectations.
So while today’s hike matters, what happens next in the bond market could be even more important for mortgage rates.
🏠 If you’re buying, refinancing or trying to figure out whether you should make a move in today’s market, let’s talk through your options.
