Thinking about buying a home? You’re not alone in feeling squeezed. Home prices just hit a record high—over $435K on average! Instead of dropping prices, sellers are just pulling their listings, making it even harder to find a deal. If you’re a first-time buyer, it’s especially rough out there. For now, many are sticking with renting until mortgage rates drop or the market chills out. Fingers crossed for lower rates later this year! #RealEstate #HomeBuying #MoneyTips
