Mortgage Rates
Mortgage rates are expected to remain in the low 6% range for most of the year. There is a pullback anticipated to occur in the back half of 2023 where we might see rates closer to 5.5%. However buyers should not expect any significant changes up or down. Take a look at the quick thoughts below from one of our National Association of REALTORS economists.
There is plenty of opportunity in the market, it’s just a normal market. Sellers have to reign in their expectations and buyers have to embrace slightly higher mortgage rates while getting to enjoy a balanced market. Mortgage rates are still some of the lowest they’ve been in the past 20 years.
