🏡 What’s ahead for mortgage rates and home prices in 2026?

If you’ve been waiting for rates or home prices to make a big move, the latest forecasts may surprise you.

Mortgage rates are expected to stay fairly steady, while home prices are projected to continue rising. That doesn’t mean you should rush into a decision—but it does mean waiting for a dramatically different market may not play out the way you expect.

✨ The good news? Opportunities are still out there. The key is knowing what makes sense for you in today’s market.

If you're thinking about buying or selling in Palm Coast or the surrounding areas, let's talk about what the local market looks like and what options may be available to you.

🏡 Mortgage rates may still feel high, but there’s some encouraging news behind the numbers.

The gap between mortgage rates and the 10-year Treasury yield has narrowed significantly from where it was in 2023. That improvement is helping keep today’s mortgage rates well below where they could otherwise be.

And as this chart shows, that gap is getting much closer to its historical average.

For buyers, the bigger question isn't just “What is today's rate?” — it's how that rate affects your monthly payment, purchasing power, and overall home-buying plans.

If you're thinking about buying in Palm Coast or the surrounding area, I'd be happy to help you look at the numbers and decide what makes sense for you.
