What’s Happening With Mortgage Rates?

Interest rates are talked about a lot these days. People want to know if they're going up or down, and why. I'll explain it briefly and tell you what experts think will happen in the future.

To answer this question, you need to understand how this problem started. Basically, you need to know about inflation. The Federal Reserve has been taking actions to raise interest rates in order to reduce inflation and slow down the economy. When inflation goes down, interest rates may also go down.

Some experts are suggesting that we may start to see rates fall again as early as next year. In the past, in economic downturns, home financing costs usually drop too. We'll have to wait and see.

If you are thinking of buying a home and want to know if now is a good time to buy, drop a comment, send me an email, or give me a call.  I’m happy to have a no-pressure conversation so you can make the best decision for you.
