Hello Friends and Neighbors,

Here is your weekly update to our local housing market...

Rates are holding steady around 5% for now but this morning's surprise number of over 500,000 new jobs creates new speculation that the Fed will again increase rates by another 75 basis points at the next meeting in September. Local home inventories are up a little off the severe shortage but remain historically low. This is allowing the strong seller market to hold though we are seeing some topping off of the price increases but have not yet seen any indication that homes values will decline anytime soon.

If you, or anyone you know, have any questions or concerns about the local housing market please do give me a call: 413-519-4049

Take care,
Brad

Hello Friends and Neighbors,

Another update to keep you informed on the local housing market...

For the first time in over 40 years the Fed is expected to raise rates by at least .75% in back-to-back meetings.

This rate hike will have no direct impact on home loan rates, but it will increase short-term rates like credit cards, auto loans and home equity lines of credit. Consumers should also expect a boost to the interest rate in your savings accounts.

How will mortgage rates react? That is the unknown at the moment. Back in June, when the Fed also raised rates by .75%, the 10-yr Note yield hit 3.49%, the highest levels in years and moved sharply lower on increased recession fears. Today, the 10-yr Note stands near 3.00%. If the economy can absorb higher long-term rates, then we should expect long-term rates to move higher. Currently the 2-yr-Note yield is near 3.25% and inverted with the 10-yr, which typically portends a recession.

In a recession, long-term rates do not go higher, and the Fed doesn't hike rates.

The Fed, who controls short-term rates, is hiking the Fed Funds Rate to slow demand, tamp down inflation, cool off the labor market and remove "froth" from the housing market.

Hello again Friends and Neighbors,

Yesterday's CPI number was not in line with the Market's expectations and has brought forth worries of persistent inflation and recession. Higher interest rates are upon the horizon and it will be interesting to see how home prices hold onto the gains of the last 2 years.

If you, or anyone in the local area, has questions or concerns concerning the housing market please do give me a call: 413-519-4049

Take care,
Brad
