Good news for homeowners and future buyers: bonds improved today after Producer Prices (PPI) came in much softer than expected. Headline PPI rose just 0.5% for the month versus the 1.1% many feared, and core PPI came in at only 0.1%. That is a nice sign that wholesale inflation is not heating up the way some expected.

The result? Mortgage pricing improved, with many rate sheets looking about 0.25 points better. So if you saw pricing worsen yesterday, today brought some welcome relief. That said, the market is still keeping one eye on the Middle East. If tensions with Iran escalate and oil spikes, mortgage rates could feel that pressure quickly.

My take: if you are closing in the next 20 days, locking may be the smart move. If you have a little more time, floating could still make sense, but cautiously. Soft inflation data is helping, but headlines can change the game fast. Message me your timeline and I’ll help you decide on the best strategy for your situation.
