1384 - The Impact of Lower Mortgage Rates Is Already Being Felt in These Five Markets by Moriah Costa
Manage episode 431214865 series 2813754
Mortgage payments are decreasing, which has some house hunters returning to the real estate market. According to the latest data from Redfin, for the four weeks ended Dec. 31, 2023, the median mortgage payment was down 14% compared to October’s all-time high. Meanwhile, the weekly average rate in early January 2024 was at 6.66% for a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage, compared to 7.79% in October.
This means homebuyers are finally getting a break from skyrocketing interest rates. And as rates start to dip, some house hunters are taking advantage of an uptick in listings. Redfin’s Homebuyer Demand Index, which measures requests for tours and homebuying services, was up 10% at the end of December from the previous month to its highest level since August, although it was down 6% year over year.
