Mortgage Market Update

We’re seeing another reminder of why mortgage rates can move even when the Fed doesn’t do anything.

The 10-year Treasury yield moved lower today as investors shifted toward safer Treasury bonds, but inflation and stronger-than-expected retail sales are creating pressure in the opposite direction. That combination is contributing to a volatile rate environment.

What does that mean if you’re buying a home?

- Don’t try to perfectly time the market.
- Focus on a payment and price range that works for you.
- If rates improve later, refinancing may become an option.

If you're thinking about buying, let's run the numbers based on today’s market and build a strategy from there.

Did You Know?

Every rent payment builds your landlord's wealth. A mortgage payment can help build your own equity over time.

Rates remain elevated as the 10-Year Treasury tops 5.30%, a level not seen in decades.

Market Update: Some Good News on Inflation

Today's inflation report came in better than expected, showing signs that inflation is continuing to cool. As a result, the market has lowered expectations for another Federal Reserve rate hike in the near term.

While mortgage rates are still moving day to day, this is an encouraging sign because lower inflation typically helps support lower long-term interest rates over time.

The housing market continues to create opportunities for both buyers and homeowners. If you've been waiting to purchase, refinance, or tap into your home's equity, it may be worth discussing your options now.

Quick Mortgage Tip

Before shopping for a home, determine your monthly payment comfort zone rather than focusing only on the maximum amount you're approved for.

The goal isn't just to buy a home. It's to enjoy it without stretching your budget too thin.

Ask yourself: ✔️ What payment fits comfortably into my lifestyle? ✔️ Do I still have room for savings and emergencies? ✔️ Will I be comfortable with future expenses?

A smart budget today leads to less stress tomorrow.

What's more important to you: a bigger home or a lower monthly payment?
