Weekly Talking Points

Use these weekly talking points to discuss current trends with your clients. Updated weekly to keep your conversations informed and insightful.

  • Mortgage Rates Improving

    Rates are trending lower as market uncertainty grows, with expectations for three Fed rate cuts this year. Buyers can lock in better affordability—a great time to get pre-approved!

  • More Negotiation Power for Buyers

    With rising inventory and seller concessions increasing, buyers now have more leverage. Those who waited may find better deals and rate improvements than last year.

  • Strong Market for Investor

    Rental demand remains high, and DSCR loans allow investors to qualify based on rental income. It’s a great time to expand portfolios with flexible financing options.

  • Floating Rates Could Pay Off

    Mortgage rates may dip even lower in the next 15-30 days. The 10-year Treasury yield is at a 4-month low, and weaker jobs data could push rates into the 3% range—worth watching closely!

LEARN ABOUT DAILY CHANGES

Mortgage Rate Chart

Most important point: the best use of this index is to track the CHANGE from day to day. There are so many things that can cause discrepancies between borrowers, lenders, and quotes. But because we use the same baseline scenario year after year, you can be sure that the CHANGE is a good representation of how rates are moving. Please reach out for any questions! : )
