For Week Ending October 22, 2022

As the housing market rebalances, many homeowners are finding they’re having to put more effort into selling their home to get the best deal possible compared to earlier in the pandemic, when conditions were different and a “For Sale” sign would often fetch multiple offers. Trends have changed, and with home sales down nationally, local REALTORS® are reporting a rise in price reductions, seller concessions, and homebuying contingencies, with a growing number of sellers needing to make repairs prior to sale.

Mortgage Rates Surpass Seven Percent

by

October 27, 2022
The 30-year fixed-rate mortgage broke seven percent for the first time since April 2002, leading to greater stagnation in the housing market. As inflation endures, consumers are seeing higher costs at every turn, causing further declines in consumer confidence this month. In fact, many potential homebuyers are choosing to wait and see where the housing market will end up, pushing demand and home prices further downward.

Median national rents fell slightly to $1,759 in September, marking the second consecutive month rents have dropped, according to a recent report from Realtor.com. Although median rents remain 7.8% higher than a year ago, it represents the smallest year-over-year increase and the slowest annual rate of growth since June 2021, suggesting the rental market may be cooling after the record-breaking pace of the last two years.
