Mortgage Rate Relief in 2024: A Welcome Change for Homebuyers
Mortgage rates are expected to stabilize and even decrease slightly in 2024 after a period of volatility. While they won’t return to the historic lows we saw in 2021, the decline from their 2023 peaks may open up new possibilities for buyers who have been priced out. Lower borrowing costs mean that your monthly mortgage payments may be more manageable, making it easier to enter the housing market.
Why It Matters:
- For buyers, a reduction in rates can mean increased affordability, while sellers might see more buyers in the market.
- Potential homebuyers who have been sitting on the sidelines could see this as a golden opportunity to act.
What You Can Do: If you’re considering buying a home, now is the time to act before rates rise again. Make sure you’re pre-approved for a mortgage to take full advantage of the opportunities that arise in 2024.
