Market Update, Rates and Tariffs

More listings hitting the market and mortgage demand is surging after interest rates dropped to their lowest level since last October. Home prices remain stable, and demand is showing signs of life as buyers take advantage of improved borrowing conditions.

A major factor shaping the coming months is the recent drop in mortgage rates, which led to a 20% jump in weekly mortgage demand. Refinance applications surged 37% in just one week, showing that buyers from the last two years are finally seeing an opportunity to improve their rates. Purchase applications also rose 9% for the week and are now 2% higher than the same week one year ago. While this is a slow and steady increase, it’s a positive sign that demand is ahead of last year’s pace.

With mortgage rates trending down, the market could gain even more momentum heading into the peak spring and summer season. Additionally, new tariffs on materials from China, Canada, and Mexico are expected to put upward pressure on construction costs, which could push new home prices even higher. As a result, resale homes may become a more attractive option for buyers, strengthening their position in the market.

Seller carryback financing is a creative arrangement where the seller of a property takes on the role of the lender.
