Heading toward Labor Day weekend we had a strong closing surge of 542 closed sales (+132) signals pent-up end-of-summer transaction activity clearing. Listings stayed flat (โ2) and pendings barely moved (+3), so the weekly gap is only moderately negative at โ29. The rolling gap stabilized around โ30.25, and rates moved up across the board. Conventional to 6.89%, FHA to 6.41%, VA to 6.43%. Thatโs roughly +.15 moves, which is notable after weeks of relative flatness.
