Your weekly economic update is here. Here is what you need to know:

• Mortgage rates moved slightly higher last week, increasing by two basis points according to the Freddie Mac Primary Mortgage Market Survey as of May 28. While rates have been trending upward since late April, they remain lower than this time last year. The continued rise in pending home sales suggests buyers are still engaged and may be ready to move when affordability improves.

• Mortgage application activity pulled back last week, with applications decreasing 8.5% according to the Mortgage Bankers Association. Refinance activity saw the biggest impact as rates reached their highest level since August 2025, while purchase applications softened slightly across loan types. Even with the weekly decline, purchase demand remains stronger than last year, showing continued interest from buyers.

• Inflation picked up in April, with the PCE price index rising at its fastest pace in three years. Higher energy prices tied to the ongoing conflict with Iran added pressure, creating a more difficult environment for the Federal Reserve. While the Fed cannot directly solve supply-related price shocks, persistent inflation could influence expectations around future rate decisions.

• Home price growth continued to slow heading into the spring market, with the Case-Shiller Index showing only a 0.7% annual increase in March. Monthly prices dipped slightly after seasonal adjustment, reflecting a housing market with limited momentum. For buyers, this slower price appreciation may create opportunities, while sellers may need to stay realistic in today’s more balanced environment.

Don't love today's rate?
Buy now, refinance later. 🔑 'Date the rate, marry the home' is real advice.

Here's the logic:
→ Home values continue to appreciate → When rates drop, you can refinance to a lower payment → But you can't go back and buy at today's prices Locking in the home NOW means you're building equity while others wait.

Your weekly economic update is here. Here is what you need to know:

• Mortgage rates moved higher last week as Treasury yields climbed, adding pressure to affordability and overall application activity. While the Federal Reserve does not directly set mortgage rates, market expectations around inflation, global conflict, and future Fed policy continue to play an important role in where rates move next.

• Mortgage applications also declined last week as higher rates caused some purchase borrowers to pause. With the 30-year fixed rate reaching its highest level in seven weeks, more borrowers explored adjustable-rate mortgage options, which offered a lower rate alternative compared to traditional fixed-rate loans.

• The latest Federal Reserve meeting minutes showed growing debate among officials about the future direction of interest rates. While some still believe rate cuts may be appropriate once inflation moves closer to the Fed’s 2% target, many officials indicated that additional policy tightening could be needed if inflation remains elevated.

• The labor market continues to show resilience, with unemployment claims falling slightly last week. For now, steady employment gives the Federal Reserve more room to remain focused on inflation, though economists are still watching for any delayed effects from higher energy prices and global supply disruptions.

Your weekly economic update is here. Here is what you need to know:

• Mortgage rates continued to stabilize last week, dipping slightly after the volatility we saw throughout March. While affordability challenges remain, purchase demand is still running ahead of last year’s pace and existing home sales are showing modest improvement — a positive sign as we move further into the spring market.

• Mortgage application activity also picked up, with purchase applications rising 7% compared to this time last year. Buyers appear to be adjusting to current market conditions and re-entering the market despite ongoing rate and economic uncertainty, showing continued resilience across multiple loan types.

• Inflation, however, remains one of the market’s biggest challenges. April’s Consumer Price Index came in higher than expected, driven largely by rising energy costs, keeping inflation well above the Federal Reserve’s long-term target. Persistent inflation continues to create pressure on both consumers and interest rates, making affordability a key focus across the housing market.

• Consumer spending also remained steady in April, even as higher gas prices tied to tensions in the Middle East began impacting household budgets. While Americans are becoming more cautious with larger purchases, overall spending has remained surprisingly resilient thanks to a still-strong job market and steady employment growth.

Most loan officers focus on gross commission.
But gross commission is not what you actually keep.

Hidden costs, operational layers, and inefficient expense management all impact pricing and your paycheck.

You shouldn’t have to choose between lowering comp or losing deals on rate.

Your weekly economic update is here. Here is what you need to know:

• Mortgage rates moved slightly higher again last week, but there are still encouraging signs for buyers heading into the spring market. Inventory levels remain improved compared to recent years, new-home sales have picked up, and median new-home prices have fallen to their lowest level since mid-2021, helping ease some affordability pressure.

• Mortgage application activity slowed as rates reached their highest point in about a month, continuing to impact refinance demand. Even so, overall purchase activity remains stronger than this time last year, showing buyers are still actively engaging in the market despite economic uncertainty.

• The manufacturing sector expanded for the fourth consecutive month in April, reflecting continued resilience across the broader economy. While geopolitical tensions continue to create caution in some industries, economic activity overall remains steady.

• Labor market conditions also continue to show strength. Jobless claims increased modestly last week, but low layoff levels and stable employment data reinforce expectations that the Federal Reserve may hold rates steady for the foreseeable future.
