🏡 Friday Rate Update — Great News to End the Week!

Mortgage rates dropped again this week — and it’s been 8 straight business days of rates holding steady or moving lower. That kind of momentum doesn’t happen often, so it’s worth paying attention.

So what’s driving rates down?
The bond market has been cooperating, the 10-year Treasury has pulled back, and there’s growing optimism around global geopolitical tensions easing — particularly around the Iran situation. When uncertainty fades, bonds rally and mortgage rates tend to follow. Good news on that front has been good news for borrowers.

The takeaway? Conditions are improving and buyers who act are winning.

🙋‍♂️ I am beyond accessible this weekend.

If you or someone you know is thinking about buying — there is zero reason to wait until Monday. Let’s talk this weekend, run the numbers, and get you moving.
