Mortgage rates have been skyrocketing! Mortgage interest rates (30yr fixed) have recently surged to the highest levels seen since early November 2022. This is likely to decrease home buyer demand further as long as rates stay elevated. For example, for a homebuyer looking to purchase a $450,000 home with 5% down payment, it would cost them approximately $267 more per month at 6.94% on 3/1/23 compared to 2/2/23 when 30yr rates were averaging 5.99% (based on principal and interest payments). Also, over the life of the loan (30yrs) that equates to an extra $100k in additional interest payments!

Additionally, the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) reported on 3/1/23 that their seasonally adjusted purchase index fell to the lowest levels in 28 years (going back to ~April 1995). This is a measure of the number of mortgage purchase applications in the US.

In today’s video, I take a deep dive into leading indicators of homebuying demand which could give us some indication of where our housing market is headed. Enjoy! Like and subscribe!
