National Real Estate News

Price growth slowing

The Case-Shiller national home price index for August was up +4.2% year-over-year - still solid, but a big deceleration from +6.7% YoY back in February. With 30-yr mortgage rates rebounding above 7% and inventory continuing to rise, price growth should moderate further. Data provider CoreLogic forecasts just 2.3% price growth over the next 12 months.

A post-election surge

Trump's victory in the presidential election boosted stock prices on Wednesday but hit bonds hard. As a result, the yield on the 10-year US treasury jumped near 4.5% and average 30-yr mortgage rates moved above 7.1% for the first time since July 2024. [Source: MBS Highway, Mortgage News Daily]

A post-election surge
Fed's second cut

Despite recent contradictory data regarding the strength of the economy, Fed members stuck to the loosening program and voted to reduce the target Federal Funds Rate by 25 basis points (one quarter of a percentage point) on Thursday. That said, with inflation (as measured by "core" PCE) down dramatically in the last 2 years, The Fed still has a lot of "catching down" to do. [Source: Federal Reserve]

Curious about local real estate? So are we! Every month we review trends in our real estate market and consider the number of homes on the market in each price tier, the amount of time particular homes have been listed for sale, specific neighborhood trends, the median price and square footage of each home sold and so much more. We’d love to invite you to do the same!
