If you want a succinct explanation of what's happening with interest rates and impact moving forward, this is a great, quick article. For 30-year rates (conventional loan types), rates are now over 5% and will continue to increase to 5.5% by the end of the year. While this seems crazy high compared to what we've experienced in the last couple of years, these are still historically low rates (i.e., it was 8% back in 2000 and 16% back in 1980s - yikes!). Still a good time to buy, but you may need to adjust your price point as we move through the year and rates continue to go up.

Congratulations to this sweet family and their recent closing! As a Realtor in this crazy market, it can be very discouraging, especially when we have to relay disappointing news to our buyer clients. But this purchase was a reminder of God’s provision and faithfulness. From the chance encounter with the seller and listing agent at the home to better-than-expected inspection reports, we could all sense His hand at every step. So happy for them and finding this beautiful home and community!
