Mortgage rates have recently dropped, reaching their lowest point since February, influenced by positive economic reports, inflation data, unemployment rates, and the Federal Reserve's comments. This decline improves home affordability and may encourage more buyers to enter the market. However, experts caution that the ultra-low rates of the pandemic era, around 3%, are unlikely to return, with rates between 5.5%
and 6% being more realistic.
This dip in rates presents a key opportunity for buyers, as lower rates typically increase demand, potentially leading to higher home prices and increased competition. If you've been waiting to buy, now may be an ideal time to act before the market heats up again.
