Brian Sanchez+FollowWhy Houses Are Suddenly Sitting LongerHeads up if you’re house hunting or thinking of selling: there are way more homes for sale than buyers right now—the biggest gap in over a decade! That means sellers are starting to get real about pricing, and you might see more price cuts or perks thrown in. But don’t expect a fire sale—prices are still creeping up, and most sellers would rather wait than drop too low. If you’re buying, patience could pay off! #housingmarket #realestate #homebuying415Share
Shelly Powell+FollowWhy House Hunting Feels Like a Waiting GameThinking about buying a house? Mortgage rates just climbed again—now averaging nearly 7%. That means fewer people are shopping for homes, and even fewer are selling, since no one wants to swap their low-rate loan for a pricier one. The twist? There are more homes for sale than buyers, so if you’re in the market, you might have some bargaining power. Just remember: sellers are still dreaming big with their asking prices! #HomeBuying #MortgageRates #RealEstate10Share
russellolson+FollowWhy Your Mortgage Rate Isn't BudgingGrab your coffee—mortgage rates are holding steady this week, with the 30-year fixed hovering around 6.93%. If you’re house hunting, that means your monthly payment on a $100K loan is about $660 (before taxes and insurance). The big shift? Jumbo loans just got pricier, so if you’re eyeing a dream home, expect a higher bill. No major drops expected soon, so focus on boosting your credit score or saving for a bigger down payment to snag a better deal! #MortgageTips #HomeBuying #MoneyHacks #RealEstate10Share
Heather Moore+FollowMillennials Still Chasing Home DreamsTurns out, high mortgage rates aren’t scaring off millennials from house hunting!

Matthew Jackson+FollowWhy Fewer People Are Buying Homes NowThinking about buying a house? You’re not alone in hitting pause.

So if you’re waiting for a better deal, you’re in good company. The takeaway: high rates are making everyone rethink that dream home for now. Maybe it’s time to keep renting or wait for rates to chill out! #HomeBuying #MortgageRates #MoneyTalks #RealEstate934Share
hodgesmaria+FollowWhy Everyone’s Hitting Pause on Home BuyingThinking about buying a house? You’re not alone in waiting it out. Home prices are sky-high, mortgage rates are nearly triple what they were a few years ago, and builders are slowing down because costs (like lumber) keep going up. The result? More people are sticking with renting or doubling up with family to save cash. If you’re house hunting, it might pay to wait and build up your down payment while the market chills out. #HomeBuying #MoneyTips #RealEstate2718Share
megan01+FollowMortgage Rates: Why Your Coffee Costs LessThinking about buying a home or refinancing? Mortgage rates are still hanging just under 7%, which is a bit of a relief after flirting with higher numbers last week. The back-and-forth is thanks to tariff drama—when tariffs go up, so can your future mortgage payments. If you’re house hunting, now’s the time to shop around for the best deal and maybe even ask lenders about ways to lower your rate. Every little bit helps keep your monthly payments in check! #MortgageTips #HomeBuying #MoneyHacks #RealEstate00Share
Denise Kemp+FollowWhy Your Mortgage Rate Isn't BudgingThinking about buying a home or refinancing? Mortgage rates are basically stuck in neutral right now—30-year loans are hovering around 6.9%. That’s only a hair lower than last week, so don’t expect a sudden drop. The real drama? Even with the Fed trying to help, rates aren’t falling much, so if you’re waiting for a big dip, you might be waiting a while. Pro tip: Use a mortgage calculator to see what your monthly payment would look like before you jump in! #HomeBuying #MortgageTips #MoneyHacks #RealEstate10Share
