Mortgage applications just hit a 2-year high, which is often the first sign that buyer activity is picking up again. Prices usually react later, so this is something worth keeping an eye on if you’re thinking about making a move. If you want a quick read on your local market, I can pull one for you.

Current Rate Snapshot:
Mortgage rates were little-changed and remain in a tight range. The 30-year fixed rate is at 6.19%, while the 15-year fixed is at 5.76%. Other loan types like FHA, VA, and Jumbo loans are in the 5.95% to 6.14% range.

Where They Are Going:
Despite the release of decent inflation data (the Consumer Price Index), which typically would help rates fall, rates saw only minimal increases and were essentially flat. This suggests that the market had already anticipated the positive news. The overall trend is one of stability, with rates holding steady rather than making a significant move downward.

A lot can change in just 30 days. Lower rates translate into more affordability, which means you can stretch your budget further or lower your monthly payment.
If you’ve been waiting for the right moment to buy, this is a reminder that timing matters. Let’s talk about what today’s numbers mean for you.

Worried about a 2008 repeat? The numbers tell a different story. Today’s market is stable, foreclosures are rare, and homeowners have more equity than ever. The time to buy is still now.

We currently have about 4.4 months of housing supply.
Here’s why that matters:

Less than 5–6 months = seller-favored market
More than 6 months = buyer-favored market

At 4.4 months, we’re still in your favor— but things are shifting.

If you’re waiting to list “later,” know this:
Later may come with more competition and lower leverage.
