🏡 LAKE OF THE PINES MARKET UPDATE 🌲

What’s happening in our local real estate market? Every market is different — and we’re seeing that play out across the region.

📈 Roseville, Lincoln & Rocklin have been outperforming last year, while some neighborhoods are experiencing more of a “stand still” as buyers continue to navigate higher interest rates.

Current mortgage rates are hovering around:

🏠 30-year conventional: ~6.7%
🏠 15-year conventional: ~5.86%
🇺🇸 30-year VA: ~6.2%–6.5%
🏠 30-year jumbo: ~6.7%

For Lake of the Pines, local market conditions matter. Inventory, pricing, buyer demand and the unique characteristics of our community can all influence how quickly homes sell and what sellers ultimately receive.

💡 For buyers: Higher rates can create opportunities when competition is more limited.

💡 For sellers: Pricing your home correctly from the beginning is especially important in a slower-moving market.

The market isn't the same everywhere — your neighborhood tells the real story.

Sometimes the perfect home isn’t even on the market yet ✉️

I love reaching out to homeowners on behalf of my clients—sending thoughtful letters that share genuine interest and ask the questions many buyers are wondering about. You’d be surprised how often this opens doors (literally!).
