6% Mortgage Line Finally Broke
A small change can grab attention fast, even if home buying takes longer to respond.

What Happened
In Freddie Mac’s Primary Mortgage Market Survey released Thursday, Feb. 26, 2026, the average 30-year fixed-rate mortgage was 5.98%, down from 6.01% the prior week. Freddie Mac noted this is the first weekly print below 6% since September 2022, and it compared with 6.76% in the same week a year earlier.
That “5.98%” headline landed loudly because it crossed a clean threshold. Many stories framed it as “mortgage rates fall below 6% for the first time since 2022,” emphasizing the round-number break more than the small week-to-week change.
In parallel, demand data moved more slowly. The Mortgage Bankers Association reported mortgage applications increased in its weekly survey released Feb. 25, 2026, with the refinance component rising more than purchase activity (exact mix varies week to week, but the headline was an increase).

Good News!

The FED just cut interest rates yesterdsy by .25%
Read on …,

The Federal Reserve on Sept. 17 announced a quarter percentage point cut to its benchmark interest rate. Economists say it is likely the first in a series of reductions that should make borrowing more accessible for consumers.

Fed Chair Jerome Powell described the reduction as “a risk-management cut” against the growing downside risks to employment. But with inflation still above the Fed’s 2% target – typically justification to raise rates or keep them steady – Powell acknowledged that the Fed faces “no risk-free path” in its decisions moving forward.

Here’s some updated information for the Oakhurst, CA area:

Tue Jun 17 2025
This week the median list price for Oakhurst, CA is $550,000 with the market action index hovering around 30. This is about the same as last month's market action index of 30. Inventory has held steady at or around 63.

The market remains in a relative stasis in terms of sales to inventory. Prices have not been moving higher for several weeks. However, inventory is sufficiently low to keep us in the Seller’s Market zone so watch changes in the MAI. If the market heats up persistently, prices are likely to resume an upward climb.
