Experts Share Insights on Future Mortgage Rate Trends
With mortgage rates in 2026 hovering close to 7%—and 30-year fixed options ranging from 6.7% to 6.9%—I know many folks across eastern North Carolina are watching the numbers closely. These rates aren't set in stone; your credit, location, and financial profile all play a role in where your rate lands. If the Fed raises rates, we could see them climb higher, but if inflation is managed, there may be some relief. One thing I've seen time and again over my three decades here: even small improvements in your credit can make a real difference when it's time to lock in a rate. Helping local families navigate these changes is what I’m here for—because homeownership matters in our community.
