Mortgage rates were volatile last week, as expected. Rates started slightly higher but improved after the Fed meeting. That improvement wasn’t driven by the policy rate cut itself, which had already been priced in, but by Chair Powell’s comments during his press conference signaling the Fed could be open to additional cuts in 2026 if the data supports it.

Rates face another potentially volatile week as delayed labor market and inflation data is released in the same week following the shutdown. While day-to-day movement is likely, there shouldn’t be any major moves pushing rates significantly higher or lower.

📈 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸:
- Labor data: Tuesday brings November jobs data, including number of new jobs created and unemployment figures. The forecast is for a low jobs number, and if the report comes in higher it could be bad for rates.
- Inflation data: This week brings a fresh look at inflation, which could help mortgage rates if the data comes in lower than expected. However, if inflation remains stubbornly above the Fed’s target, the numbers could instead put upward pressure on rates.

Mortgage rates lost a bit of ground last week, although it really wasn't much. Mortgage rates continued to reflect the expectation of a Fed policy rate cut this week, and there was little reaction to the limited amount of economic data for the week, including inflation data.

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸'𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁: 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗯𝗲 𝘃𝗼𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗲 ⚠️
Rates still appear to have limited room for improvement, though that could change depending on the market’s reaction to Wednesday’s Fed meeting. Still, there’s a strong possibility we see a repeat of the last two Fed meetings, when mortgage rates moved higher afterward.

📈 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸:
- The Fed: Markets expect the Fed to cut its policy rate by a quarter percent at this week’s meeting, but mortgage rates already reflect that cut and won’t move lower because of it. Instead, if markets sense the Fed may be done cutting for a while, the reaction could put upward pressure on mortgage rates.
- Fed Powell's press conference: Mortgage rates usually make the biggest move after the Fed meeting, during Fed Chair Jerome Powell's press conference. This could be especially true this week as Powell is asked about future Fed plans heading into 2026.

Feeling stuck between high home prices and mortgage rates? 😩
You’re not alone, and honestly, it makes sense to feel that way. Many people feel like they’re being forced to choose between two hard options right now.

But here’s the thing I want you to really hear: the real cost of waiting is usually the part no one sees.
🏡 Prices don’t usually drop the way we wish they would
📈 Rates don’t always move on our timeline
💸 And every extra year of renting is money we never get back

I don’t want you stressing yourself out trying to time the “perfect” moment; that moment rarely exists.
What does exist is a strategy that actually supports your life, your timing, and your budget.

Let’s look at your numbers, slow things down, and talk through what makes sense for you.
You deserve clarity, confidence, and a plan, not more confusion. 💬

Mortgage rates continued to improve last week ahead of the holiday, and although rates only moved slightly lower they were near the best levels seen since October.

Rates may creep back up a bit this week, or at best will likely stay near current levels. It's tough to imagine mortgage rates can move much lower in the next couple of weeks, especially understanding that mortgage rates already reflect expectations that the Fed will cut policy rates one more time at its December meeting.

📈 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸:
- Economic data: This week should have been a week filled with important labor market data ahead of next week's Fed meeting, but due to the government shutdown most of the reports have been delayed until later this month. However, there is still some data this week that could influence mortgage rates depending on how strong it shows the labor market and economy to be.
- The Fed: Markets are currently betting on a Fed policy rate cut at its next meeting, which is why mortgage rates have moved lower from earlier in November. If anything were to cause doubt about a coming cut, it could pressure mortgage rates slightly higher once again.

It wasn’t much, but mortgage rates did improve slightly last week as markets grew more confident in a December Fed rate cut after NY Fed President Williams, an influential Fed member, hinted that a “further adjustment in the near term” was likely.

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸'𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁: 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗲 👍
With the shift last week toward expectations the Fed could cut its rate in December, it opens the door for rates to improve a bit further this holiday shortened week. That said, don't look for rates to move much lower, the gains will more likely be in rebate pricing provided by lenders to help offset closing costs. Expect rates themselves to stay relatively unchanged, at least until the Fed's December meeting.

📈 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸:
- Thanksgiving: Bond markets, which set the stage for mortgage rates, will be closed on Thursday and will close at 2pm ET on Friday. Traders often take off early Wednesday and don't return until Monday, and there is usually no movement in mortgage rates during this period.
- Economic data: There are a few reports this week that will come out Wednesday that could have a small influence on mortgage rates ahead of the holiday break.

Although mortgage rates worsened slightly, the changes were minimal. Quoted rates stayed mostly the same, but rebate pricing, the cost to buy down a rate or the credit toward closing costs, was a bit worse as markets waited for new data now that the shutdown has ended.

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸'𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁: 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗲𝗿 👎
Markets will finally get some of the delayed data this week, although it will be older information. The White House has said that more recent economic data from October may “likely never” be released since little was collected during the shutdown. This means mortgage rates aren’t likely to make any big moves, but we could still see day-to-day volatility as markets try to gauge where the economy and labor market are heading into 2026.

📈 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸:
- Old data: The September BLS labor data will be released Thursday, and while it’s outdated, markets will still respond. This report is normally a major mover, but given its age, the reaction will likely be more muted.
- The Fed: Fed members are indicating they don’t support a December rate cut, and that stance has recently nudged mortgage rates a bit higher.

Mortgage rates were barely higher to end the week, as markets continued to hold steady waiting for more data to come when the government shutdown is over. This is actually better than we've seen in weeks following previous Fed meetings that included a policy rate cut though.

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸'𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁: 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗲𝗿 👎
Mortgage rates have a good chance of creeping slightly higher again this week if a budget is passed and the shutdown is lifted, although the moves won't be too significant. Rates aren’t in danger of moving much higher right now, but that could change later this month depending on when we start to see economic data again and what the data shows markets.

📈 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸:
- Government shutdown: A budget deal is expected to get passed this week, which would end the shutdown. Preliminary reactions in markets have not been good for mortgage rates so far, as the news of progress played a role in slightly higher rates to start the week.
- Economic data: Even if the shutdown ends this week, it is still too late for the consumer and wholesale inflation data that would have been collected and released this week.
