So what's going on in the mortgage market today?

We have definitely seen interest rates rise over the last two weeks, however, we are also seeing some price gouging by various mortgage lenders in our market.

Over the last few days I've had multiple borrowers contact me about mortgage rates that are significantly higher than what they were quoted a week or two ago.

While this is true, many lenders are using this as an opportunity to increase their profit margins by creating quotes that are much higher than where the market is.

If you have a friend, client, or family member who is in the middle of a purchase transaction and a little taken back by the current quotes they are seeing have them give me a call. I have been saving most borrowers anywhere between a quarter of a percent to a half percent in rate.

I'm here to help all of my friends and Referral partners look good!

Rates continued to move lower for the third straight week, making the biggest gains on Friday after Iran announced it would fully reopen the Strait of Hormuz to commercial traffic. Although still higher than before the conflict began, rates are well below the highest levels seen just a few weeks ago.

Rates this week will continue reacting to headlines about the ceasefire and reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, and are in a good position to creep lower if progress toward a final resolution continues. Donโ€™t expect rates to only move lower, though, as we could still see some day-to-day increases while negotiations continue, like early in the week when Iran announced it would no longer allow ships through the strait, pressuring rates.

โ€ข The Middle East: Even when a resolution doesnโ€™t seem close, markets remain optimistic the conflict with Iran will be resolved soon, helping both stocks and bonds and supporting mortgage rates. As long as the ceasefire holds, we could continue to see rates improve.

โ€ข Economic data: There is very little economic data this week, and it will not play much of a role in mortgage rates.

The rain today feels like a much-needed reset. It has a way of quieting the noise and softening the world, reminding us that nature has its own way of washing away the dust and weight of yesterday.

We often move through our routines focused on our own deadlines and stresses, forgetting that everyone we pass is carrying an invisible backpack.

For some, that pack is filled with quiet grief, hidden anxieties, or challenges they aren't ready to put into words. You never truly know what someone is going through behind a professional exterior or a polite "Iโ€™m fine."

As we head into this holiday weekend, letโ€™s not wait until Sunday to show up for each others.

Make an Impact Today:

๐ŸŒธ Reach Out Early: Send that text or make that call to the person who has been on your mind. Don't assume they know youโ€™re thinking of themโ€”tell them.

๐ŸŒธ Express Gratitude: Share with your loved ones exactly what they mean to you. Life moves fast; take the moment now to make sure they feel seen and valued.

๐ŸŒธ Small Gestures, Big Waves: A firm handshake, an unsolicited compliment, or a genuine smile can be the turning point in someoneโ€™s day. It might be the only light they see while navigating a personal storm they don't want to talk about.

Let the rain wash away the lingering pains of the past week and step into these next few days with a clear heart. Finish the week strong by being the best version of yourselfโ€”kind, present, and intentional. You never know whose day you might brighten just by being you.

Market share for Mortgage Brokers is officially on the rise, hitting a massive 27.88%! ๐Ÿ“ˆ

But what does that number actually mean for you when youโ€™re looking for a home? It means the lending landscape is shifting in favor of the consumer.

Choosing a broker over a traditional bank provides:

* More Choices: Access to dozens of lenders and hundreds of loan products, not just what one bank has on the shelf.

* Lower Fees & Better Rates: Wholesale pricing often beats retail bank rates, saving you thousands over the life of your loan.

* Advanced Technology: Modern tools that make the application process faster, easier, and significantly less stressful.

* Expert Advocacy: You have a professional navigating the complexities for you, ensuring your file gets to the finish line.

Is it just me, or has there been something in the water this week? ๐ŸŒŠ

Iโ€™ve spent the last few days connecting with so many of my clients, realtors, and referral partners, and the energy has beenโ€ฆ intense.

Weโ€™ve navigated a wild mix of big personalities, unexpected challenges, and a few "back to the drawing board" moments.
But among the hurdles, we also snagged some incredible victories that made the hustle worth it! ๐Ÿ†

I think I speak for everyone when I say: This Friday feels different. There is a collective sigh of relief happening right now, and it feels great.

Now, itโ€™s time to unplug. Have a fantastic weekend, everyone! Go make some memories with the people who matter most. ๐Ÿฅ‚๐Ÿค

Thinking about refinancing? Donโ€™t just wait for the newsโ€”have a plan! ๐Ÿ“‰๐Ÿก

When considering a refinance, the #1 thing you need to determine is your "strike rate." What exactly is a strike rate? ๐ŸŽฏ

Itโ€™s your target interest rate! By identifying the specific rate you want to hit, you can collaborate with your Mortgage Broker to lock it in the second the market presents the opportunity.

Market rates change daily. ๐Ÿ•’ Instead of waiting for the media to publish outdated rates or inaccurate data, make sure you have a pro on your side monitoring the market for you in real-time.

At Shotbolt Mortgage, we work with multiple lenders consistently to align terms that match your specific goals and credit profile.

Ready to hit your target? Letโ€™s get to work!

๐Ÿ“‰ Good News for Your Wallet: Inflation is Cooling!

Have you seen the latest headlines? The January inflation numbers just dropped, and they are lower than expected! For most of us, "inflation" just sounds like a scary word for "everything is getting more expensive."

But when that number comes in lower than the experts predicted, it's a massive win for anyone looking to buy a home or refinance.

At Shotbolt Mortgage, Jack is watching these numbers like a hawk. Why? Because this data is the "secret sauce" that determines what you pay for your mortgage.

๐Ÿ” Why This Matters (The Simple Version)
If you aren't an economist, here is why this "lower than expected" number is such a big deal for your mortgage:

โ€ข The Fedโ€™s Game Plan: The Federal Reserve (the "Fed") hates high inflation. To fight it, they keep interest rates high. When they see inflation finally cooling down to 2.4% (lower than the 2.5% expected!), they feel more comfortable planning for interest rate cuts.

โ€ข The "Rate Cut" Ripple Effect: When the Fed eventually cuts their benchmark rate, itโ€™s a signal to the entire financial world. While the Fed doesnโ€™t set mortgage rates directly, mortgage rates almost always follow their lead and start to drift lower.

โ€ข Mortgage Rate Improvement: We are already seeing the benefits! As inflation stays sustained on this downward path, mortgage rates are finding a new, lower "home." This means more buying power for you and lower monthly payments.

โ€ข The Power of "Sustained" Growth: One good month is great; a pattern is better. This January data reinforces the trend that inflation is drifting lower. This consistency gives lenders the confidence to offer better rates for the long haul.

๐Ÿ  What Should You Do?

Timing the market is hard, but you don't have to do it alone. Jack at Shop Mortgage intensely tracks this data every single day to ensure his clients lock in their rates at the absolute best moment.

The bottom line: Lower inflation = Potential for lower rates = More money in your pocket.

Is now the right time for you to lock or refinance? Letโ€™s look at your specific numbers together! Give Jack a call at 402-850-9739 ๐Ÿ“ž NMLS 10196
