Mortgage Rates Driving Starter Home Sales Despite Low Affordability
Manage episode 223485413 series 2361960
Steve kicks off Real Estate Round-Up with a focus on mortgage rates. He notes, with significant satisfaction, that he bought a house five years ago with a 3.75% rate on a 30-y mortgage. Terry adds that mortgage rates are currently in the 4.5% range, so they are still low by historical standards.
That said, if your finances are tight, a 0.75% increase can be sizable.
Potential buyers could opt for a lower rate of about 4% with a 15-year mortgage.
However, because the loan needs to be paid back sooner, monthly mortgage payments are a lot higher. (103)
