Buyers, Lenders, Agents—Has this also been your experience recently?!?
The spring housing market was off to a promising start when mortgage rates briefly dipped below 6% in February, but the Iran conflict reversed that progress. Rates have climbed back up, mortgage applications have fallen for four straight weeks, and inflation surged to 3.3% in March, the largest annual increase in nearly two years. The added monthly cost, roughly $100 more on a median-priced home, is pushing some buyers to the sidelines, not because they've been priced out entirely, but because of mounting uncertainty.
