✨ GOOD NEWS MARKET WATCH ✨
11/07/25 – 11/14/25
Hey friends! Here’s your weekly snapshot of what’s happening out there in real estate — and yes, we’ve actually got some good news to smile about! 😄🏡💚
📉 Interest rates dipped a bit this week — nothing dramatic, but hey, I’ll take every little win we can get!
🇺🇸 President Donald Trump signed legislation officially ending the longest government shutdown in U.S. history. That means normal operations are back on track, which helps stabilize markets and timelines.
📊 October’s inflation report is delayed until December, but early estimates show a modest 0.2% rise for the month and 3% year-over-year. Slow and steady is the vibe.
🏷️ About 42% of listings saw price cuts this fall, and at the same time, delistings jumped as many sellers chose to pull their homes instead of reducing the price. The market is still finding its balance.
🏦 And despite the chatter, 50-year mortgages aren’t rolling out anytime soon — there are some major regulatory and investor hurdles to clear before those would ever hit consumers. So no need to plan for a half-century mortgage just yet!
🤖 AI in home searches is booming! More buyers are using AI-assisted tools to get faster, smarter, and more personalized listings. (And yes — I use the good ones so you don’t have to!)
If you’re curious what these trends mean for your home or your future plans, message me anytime.
