I've got great news...When you're ready, the next step in getting a low rate mortgage made easy is to contact me so we can review your unique situation and make sure that you get a low rate mortgage without the stress and hassle. I’ve always tried to live my life by

the “golden rule” to treat others as you would like to be treated. I use that same philosophy in business. I began my career in mortgage banking in 1990. I have held many positions within the mortgage industry including, closer, processor, loan officer assistant and loan originator.

We started our family with our son, Christiaan in 2006 and added our daughter, Libby in 2008. As the wife of a hero (husband is a 4th grade teacher), I feel strongly about giving back to the hero community. My goal is to build relationships with my borrowers and to provide a smooth transaction with least amount of stress possible. MLO NMLS ID #: 279213

Rates improved last week, even as jobs data indicated a resilient labor market despite the Fed maintaining higher policy rates. However, the gains were small, with rates remaining relatively steady for the second consecutive week instead of seeing the expected volatility.

A lot is happening this week that could impact mortgage rates, with inflation being the biggest factor. While some day-to-day rate fluctuations are expected, significant swings in either direction are unlikely.

📈 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸:
- Tariffs: While still making headlines, traders seem less concerned about tariffs, and they are not having a significant impact on mortgage rates.
- Fed speakers: This week features several speeches from Fed officials, with the most notable being Fed Chair Powell’s semiannual testimony before Congress, where he will discuss the economy, interest rates, and inflation outlook.
-Inflation: Consumer inflation data will come out on Wednesday, and is expected to have the biggest impact on mortgage rates this week. Higher inflation could push rates up, while inflation in line with expectations should keep rates steady.

With mortgage rates that refuse to fall, and home prices that just won't drop, there may be some creative ways I can help you get a mortgage with a payment you can afford.

Mortgage rates remained steady last week, with minimal reaction to the Fed meeting and Fed Chair Powell's press conference. The Fed left its policy rate unchanged as expected, but didn't give any clear indication that it would stop cutting rates this year. Inflation data for the week also came in as expected, helping keep mortgage rates stable.

Last week was calmer than expected, but this week could bring volatility. Markets are responding to tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China, with stocks reacting more than bonds. Mortgage rates have already priced in the expected tariffs, showing minimal movement. Labor market data later this week could influence mortgage rates.

📈 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸:
- Tariffs: Markets will respond to tariffs and any countermeasures or retaliatory actions from affected countries.
- Labor market data: This week brings multiple reports about the labor market, including job turnover and layoffs, new jobs created, and unemployment numbers. Signs of labor market strength could pressure mortgage rates higher, while data signaling a weaker labor market could help rates.

Mortgage rates edged slightly higher last week, but the changes were minimal and not cause for major concern. There was little economic data to influence rates, and the Trump administration has yet to implement the tariffs that previously raised market concerns.

This week rates could see significant movement. The Fed meeting and Chair Powell's press conference are expected to have the biggest impact, with additional attention on the first release of Q4 GDP and PCE inflation data later in the week.

📈 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸:
- The Fed: The Fed meeting concludes on Wednesday, with expectations the Fed will leave its policy rate unchanged after three consecutive cuts. The policy statement will be released at 2 PM ET, but Fed Chair Powell’s press conference afterward is likely to have a greater effect on mortgage rates. Any indication of continued rate cuts could lead to lower mortgage rates, while signs the Fed has paused rate cuts could push rates higher.
- Economic data: While secondary to the Fed’s decisions, economic data releases later this week - such as Q4 GDP and PCE inflation - may still cause rate fluctuations.

👍 𝗔𝘀 𝗮 𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗿𝘂𝗹𝗲, now is a great time to buy a home, and you shouldn't wait for rates to drop.

𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝘆...
✅ Rates are not likely to drop significantly anytime soon. Although we see rates move up and down week-to-week, rates are not likely to drop and stay lower until later this year.

✅ Home prices never fell like some people thought they would, because there continues to be a shortage in home inventory. When rates drop, lots of potential buyers will come back into the market, making it more competitive and driving home prices higher.

✅ Buying now when rates are higher will likely give you more homes to choose from and help get your offer accepted. Once you own the home, you may be able to refinance when rates do fall later this year.

Rates were helped last week after inflation data came in slightly better than expected. Fed Governor Waller added to the optimism in a CNBC interview, suggesting the Fed might implement more policy rate cuts than markets anticipated, and could start cutting sooner.

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸'𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁: 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗲𝗿 👎
Although rates only saw modest improvement last week, we sidestepped trouble when the inflation data came in a bit more favorably than was expected. This week starts with a holiday, and has little economic data to help guide mortgage rate movement. After last week's improvements though, we could see rates creep a bit higher this week. Longer term outlook is for rates to remain near these levels.

📈 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸:
- Trump inauguration: Trump will be sworn in Monday, and is expected to hit the ground running. We could see some volatility in markets based on the immediate actions taken and executive orders that are implemented.
- The Fed: Markets had a strong reaction last week to comments made by Fed Governor Waller, but we will not be hearing from any Fed members this week as they enter the customary blackout period ahead of January 28th/29th's Fed meeting.

What is the difference? 🤔

👉 Getting prequalified is the process of providing a mortgage lender with some background information like your credit, income, and expenses so the lender can help you determine how much you can afford and what you are likely to qualify for.

👉 A preapproval, however, means you've provided the lender with proof of your income and assets and had a credit check to determine exactly how much you can be approved for. In some cases, a preapproval can show you are approved for a loan before making an offer, which makes your offer stronger and could help you win a bidding war.

𝗟𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸'𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗮𝗽: 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗱 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗲𝗿 👎
Mortgage rates rose last week, particularly on Friday, following the release of stronger-than-expected jobs data. The report showed a significant increase in job creation and a decline in the unemployment rate from 4.2% to 4.1%. This robust labor market data pushed bond yields higher and led markets to anticipate that Fed policy rate cuts would be delayed until later in the year.

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸'𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁: 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗲𝗿 👎
Mortgage rates could continue to climb this week, depending on inflation data. If inflation shows signs of increasing, concerns may grow that the Fed will be unable to lower its policy rate and might even need to consider hiking later in the year. Even if inflation remains stable, it's unlikely that mortgage rates will move lower from here.

📈 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸:
- Inflation data: Tuesday brings wholesale inflation numbers, but it is Wednesday's consumer inflation data that will have the biggest effect on mortgage rates this week.
- The Fed: Concerns that the Fed will not be able to further cut its policy rate this year could pressure mortgage rates higher.
- 10yr Treasury yield: If the 10yr yield gets near 5%, mortgage rates will move higher.

Mortgage rates started the new year unchanged, and that should be considered a win after watching rates move higher in the first half of December.

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸'𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁: 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗲𝗿 👎
Mortgage rates are expected to rise in early 2025, and that trend could begin this week with strong labor market data and concerns about rising inflation. House hunters should get comfortable with these rates, because it is unlikely we will see rates move much lower without signs of a weakening economy and a softening labor market.

📈 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸:
- Labor market data: Key reports this week will cover job openings, new job creation, layoffs, and unemployment rates. Signs of a resilient labor market support rates remaining at these levels or moving higher.
- Treasury debt: This week brings $119 billion of fresh government debt being issued, and generally an increase in supply will pressure Treasury yields higher, which could contribute to pushing mortgage rates higher.
- The Fed: Minutes from last month's Fed meeting will be released this week, and signs that the Fed is done cutting its policy rate for awhile could put pressure on mortgage rates.

The last couple of weeks of the year are always a quiet time for mortgage rates, and last week was no exception, with rates remaining essentially unchanged. Both markets and mortgage companies were closed for the holidays, and there was little in the way of economic data or other events to influence rates.

Mortgage rates are expected to remain stable this week, with no significant increases or decreases. Most mortgage companies will close early on Tuesday and remain closed on Wednesday for New Year’s Day. Things will return to normal next week, with a week full of labor market data that could pressure rates slightly higher. Enjoy this calm before next week's storm.

📈 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸:
- New Years: Markets will close early Tuesday and will be closed on Wednesday, as will most mortgage lenders.
- Reduced trading volume: Traders tend to take the last couple of weeks of the year off, resulting in reduced trading volumes that can sometimes cause some fluctuation in day-to-day mortgage rates. However, it is unlikely rates will make any big moves before year-end.

Even though the Fed cut its policy rate last week, mortgage rates still rose. This is because the rate cut had already been priced into mortgage rates back in November, contributing to earlier rate improvements. However, new projections from Fed members signaling only two rate cuts in 2025 pushed rates higher last week.

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸'𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁: 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗮𝗺𝗲 👍
Mortgage rates are not likely to change much between now and the end of the year as trading activity slows for the holidays. Markets have already adjusted for fewer expected Fed rate cuts in 2025, along with concerns about potential increases in inflation and continued economic and labor market strength. Significant declines in mortgage rates are unlikely as we head into 2025.

📈 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸:
- Christmas: Markets will close early Tuesday and will be closed on Wednesday, as will most mortgage lenders.
- Reduced trading volume: Traders tend to take the last couple of weeks of the year off, resulting in reduced trading volumes that can sometimes cause some fluctuation in day-to-day mortgage rates. However, it is unlikely rates will make any big moves before year-end.
