Mortgage Rates Trend Up

February 23, 2023 by Jim Emond

February 23, 2023
The economy continues to show strength, and interest rates are repricing to account for the stronger than expected growth, tight labor market and the threat of sticky inflation. Our research shows that rate dispersion increases as mortgage rates trend up. This means homebuyers can potentially save $600 to $1,200 annually by taking the time to shop among lenders to find a better rate.

Weekly Market Report

February 20, 2023 by Jim Emond

For Week Ending February 11, 2023

Nationally, the median age of owner-occupied homes is 40 years, according to the 2021 American Community Survey (ACS), the most recent survey available. Among owner-occupied homes, nearly half were built before 1979, while only 10% of homes were built 2010 or later. As America’s housing stock continues to age, and with a limited supply of residential new construction available, the home renovation industry has experienced a boom the last few years, especially during the pandemic, which saw homeowner remodeling and repair spending increase by double digits, per the Leading Indicator of Remodeling Activity (LIRA) from the Harvard Joint Center for Housing Studies.

IN THE TWIN CITIES REGION, FOR THE WEEK ENDING FEBRUARY 11:

  • New Listings decreased 22.0% to 855
  • Pending Sales decreased 22.6% to 713
  • Inventory increased 15.1% to 5,647
