🏡 Mortgage Rate Update: Rates improved last week 👍

Mortgage rates moved lower after Friday’s jobs report showed a net loss of jobs. A weaker labor market makes it less likely that the Fed will need to raise its policy rate at next month’s meeting.

Could rates improve more this week? Possibly.

The biggest reports to watch are Wednesday’s CPI consumer inflation report and Thursday’s PPI wholesale inflation report. Both are expected to show that inflation cooled slightly in July.

If inflation comes in lower or close to expectations, that could help mortgage rates. Higher-than-expected inflation could push rates back up.

Oil prices are another wildcard. Continued increases could add to inflation concerns, while progress toward reopening the Strait of Hormuz could help oil prices fall and potentially benefit mortgage rates.

👉 If you’ve been waiting for rates to come down before buying or refinancing, remember that you don’t have to guess where rates are going next.

We can run the numbers based on today’s market, identify the rate or payment that would make sense for you, and then watch for that opportunity.

𝗪𝗮𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝗮 𝗰𝗼𝘀𝘁.

Many people are waiting for mortgage rates to fall before making a move.

But after this week's Federal Reserve meeting, it's becoming more likely that meaningful rate improvements will take time.

The better question isn't:

"𝗪𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗴𝗼 𝗹𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿?"

It's:

"𝗪𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝘄𝗮𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗺𝘆 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝘀𝗶𝘁𝘂𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻?"

For buyers, waiting could mean missing the right home or paying more later.

For homeowners carrying high-interest debt, waiting could mean paying more interest while credit card balances continue to grow.

Every situation is different.

That's why I don't believe in giving blanket advice.

I believe in helping people make the best decision for their goals.

If you've been sitting on the fence, let's build a plan together.

🏡 Weekly Mortgage Rate Update | Week of July 27, 2026

Last Week
Mortgage rates moved higher and reached their highest levels of the year for many lenders. Rising oil prices and speculation that the Federal Reserve could increase its policy rate pushed mortgage rates upward.

This Week
There are early signs that rates could improve after oil prices declined as military strikes in the Middle East paused. However, this could be another volatile week.

The biggest event is Wednesday's Federal Reserve meeting.

Markets are currently expecting the Fed to keep its policy rate unchanged, but investors will be focused on what Fed Chair Kevin Warsh says during his press conference. His comments could influence mortgage rates even if the Fed doesn't make any changes.

If you're planning to buy a home or refinance, don't assume today's rates will still be available tomorrow. Market conditions can change quickly.

If you'd like to discuss your options or see what today's rates look like for your situation, let's connect.

🎇 Fireworks. BBQ. Family. And maybe... housing?

One thing I've learned over the years is that holiday weekends often spark conversations about the future. Buying a first home. Moving closer to family. Renovating. Using home equity. Wondering if now is the right time to make a change.

If someone in your circle brings up housing this weekend, I'd be grateful if you kept me in mind. I'm always happy to be a resource, even if they're just looking for honest answers and aren't ready to make a move yet.

Have a safe and wonderful Fourth of July! I hope your weekend is filled with good food, great company, and memories with the people who matter most. 🇺🇸

🏡 Weekly Mortgage Rate Update | June 29, 2026

Last Week: Mortgage rates improved slightly after recovering from early-week increases. Falling oil prices helped offset concerns after inflation posted its largest annual increase in three years.

This Week: Expect volatility.

A full slate of employment reports Tuesday through Thursday could have a meaningful impact on mortgage rates. Stronger-than-expected labor data may increase expectations that the Federal Reserve will raise policy rates later this summer, which could put upward pressure on mortgage rates.

What to watch this week:
• Holiday-shortened week with markets closing early Thursday and closed Friday.
• Three days of labor market reports could create larger day-to-day rate swings.
• Markets will be watching for clues about the Fed's next move.

If you're planning to buy a home or refinance, understanding what's driving rates can help you make better decisions instead of reacting to headlines.

Questions about your buying power or current mortgage options? I'm always happy to help.

Mortgage rates moved lower last week, which is encouraging for buyers and homeowners who have been waiting for some relief.

Rates improved after reports that a peace deal with Iran was close. Now that an agreement is in place and the Strait of Hormuz is expected to reopen, oil prices have fallen. Lower oil prices can help ease inflation concerns, which may help mortgage rates improve over the coming weeks.

The biggest event to watch this week is Wednesday’s Fed meeting and press conference. That could create some short-term volatility as markets listen for clues about future Fed policy.

Also, Friday is Juneteenth, so markets and many mortgage companies will be closed.

If you’ve been waiting to buy or refinance, this may be a good week to review your options and see how the recent improvement impacts your payment.

🏡 Want to buy a home, but not sure if you're ready?

One of the biggest myths in homeownership is that you need perfect credit, 20% down, and your forever home all figured out before you can get started.

The reality?

Many buyers are much closer than they think.

That's why I'm hosting a FREE Homebuyer Readiness Workshop to help you identify the gaps between where you are today and your next step toward homeownership.

During this live webinar, we'll discuss:

✔ Understanding your true mortgage credit score
✔ Creating a realistic homebuying budget
✔ Exploring down payment and funding options
✔ Identifying the gap between your dream home and your next smart move

My goal is simple: help you gain clarity and create a plan.

Whether you're hoping to buy in the next few months or next few years, you'll walk away with practical action steps and a better understanding of your options.

Mortgage rates moved higher last week and may continue to feel pressure this week.

The main drivers are rising oil and energy costs, inflation concerns, and continued uncertainty in the Middle East. When inflation concerns rise, mortgage rates often rise with them.

For buyers and homeowners, this is not the time to make decisions based on headlines alone. It is the time to run real numbers.

A higher rate does not always mean buying is off the table. Sometimes the right strategy includes seller credits, temporary buydowns, adjusting the loan structure, or simply understanding what payment range actually works for your budget.

If you are thinking about buying or refinancing, let’s look at your options before you decide what is or is not possible.

Mortgage rates ended last week basically unchanged after fluctuating throughout the week.

This week, rates could remain elevated as markets continue watching peace talks with Iran, the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, and fresh inflation data.

For buyers and homeowners, the key takeaway is this: uncertainty can create hesitation, but it can also create opportunity for those who are prepared.

Instead of waiting for the “perfect” rate, focus on understanding your numbers, your payment comfort zone, and your long-term plan.

Mortgage rates moved slightly higher last week for the first time in a few weeks.

The increase was small, but the reason matters. Markets are still reacting to uncertainty around Iran, stalled negotiations, and the continued closure of the Strait of Hormuz.

This week, rates could be more volatile than usual. The Fed is not expected to change its policy rate, but markets may react to Fed Chair Powell’s press conference, along with any updates about Iran or the Strait of Hormuz.

For homebuyers and homeowners thinking about refinancing, this is a good reminder that waiting for the “perfect” rate can be risky. A better strategy is to know your numbers, understand your options, and be ready to move when the right opportunity appears.

Have questions about whether now is the right time to buy or refinance? Let’s talk through your options.
