That’s understandable, but remember that rising rates are usually a reflection of an improving economy. A growing economy means greater expectations for inflation and typically translates into rising home values.

While no one wants to pay more interest, knowing your home’s increase in value is greater than the cost of a higher rate can be very comforting. If you focus on the real cost of owning rather than just the interest rate, you'll find there's a lot to gain, including your peace of mind.

One of the benefits to having a primary residence in Collier and Lee County is that you can apply for tax break called Homestead Exemption. You will want to apply for this ASAP if you have not done so already. This must be done by March 1st. DO NOT WAIT! The Homestead Exemption will give you $50,000 off the assessed value of your house.
This is a huge savings that you need to take advantage of it.

The housing market finished 2021 on a high note as consumers remained active in the market trying to buy what few homes were for sale. An early read from data shows that sales in January have improved compared to December as it appears the spring-selling season started early for many builders across the country.

Estimates from the Census Bureau and HUD reveal 2021's sales were 7.3% below the 2020 figure of 822,000.

Mortgage rates climbed for the third consecutive week.

They spiked to an average of 3.45% as of January 13, making the largest weekly jump since March 2020.

The Fed expects to end its mortgage stimulus program by March or April of 2022. That could mean significantly higher mortgage rates in the first quarter of the year.

The next Federal Reserve meeting is in just four days and multiple rate hikes are anticipated for the year, as the Fed try to counter high inflation.
