How low will mortgage rates go? Here's what the experts are saying in their latest forecasts.

While no one is calling for a big drop, experts think there will be slow improvement over the next year.

But it won’t be a straight line down. You’ll want to brace for some bumps along the road as new economic data comes out.

And here's what you need to remember. We don't have to see a big drop for you to feel the difference. Any downward movement should help your bottom line.

If you want to see a rough ballpark of what your future monthly payment could look like as rates ease, DM me.

Have you heard? 1 in 5 sellers are dropping their asking price right now.

And that opens the door for buyers like you to negotiate for a better price.

You’ve got more leverage than you’ve had in years.

Overpricing doesn’t just cost you offers. It can cost you the move you need to make.

Over half of agents today say they’re seeing more sellers pull their listings off the market than normal.

And the #1 reason for that? The sellers aren’t getting offers they think are fair.

A lot of the time, those sellers expect to get the sky-high price their neighbors got a few years ago. But that’s not how the market is today.

That means they never get to relocate for a job, have more space for their growing family, or move closer to their aging relatives. All because of their asking price.

Don’t let outdated expectations stall your plans too.

Here’s why the right answer is so important for you to know.

A lot people overestimate how much they really need to save for a down payment.

The most common answers? 10 or 20%.

The truth: you may be able to put down as little as 3%.

According to FirstHomeIQ, only 8 out of 100 people actually get this right.

Don’t let misinformation hold you back.

You’ve probably seen headlines saying home prices are flat. But that’s not the full story.

In half of the largest U.S. metros, prices are still rising. In the other half, they’re easing a bit. Average those together and the numbers look flat, but what’s really happening depends entirely on where you live.

That’s why knowing your local trend is everything. Has anyone stopped to explain to you what’s really happening right here, right now?

There’s a lot to digest when it comes to understanding how mortgage rates shift and change over time, and we aren’t going to get into all of that today. But if there’s one thing to watch on where they’re likely headed, it’s the 10-year treasury yield.

Basically, the 10-year treasury yield is a widely watched benchmark for long-term interest rates. And as the yield goes up or down, mortgage rates tend to follow.

The good news is – the gap between the two is starting to narrow. And with experts saying the 10-year yield should come down going into next year, that means there’s room for mortgage rates to come down too.

I know this is a lot to keep track of. And that’s exactly why you should have an expert on your side. I’ll do the heavy lifting for you and will keep you posted as new data comes out and as rates fall further.

DM me the ideal mortgage rate you’re looking for, and when we hit that number, I’ll be the first to let you know.

What would make you feel more comfortable making a move?

63% of would-be homebuyers say lower home prices.
50% say lower mortgage rates.

If that’s what you want too, here’s the update you’ve been looking for.

Experts are projecting single-digit price increases in many markets this year. Some areas will even experience slight declines. That’s a far cry from the 20% rise we saw just a few years ago.

At the same time, mortgage rates have eased from their recent highs.

While it’s not enough to completely change the game on affordability, both trends should stick around going into 2026.

If you want to talk through how this helps your budget, DM me.

Spoiler Alert: October is officially the best month to buy a home in 2025.

The market is shaping up to bring buyers more options, better prices, and less competition in most of the top 50 metros.

But the exact week when buyer-friendly conditions peak varies by market.

Forecasts for next year are in, and experts say home sales are expected to rise.

When they do, things should start picking up pace.

But that doesn’t mean you should wait for that to happen. The real winners? They’re the ones who start the planning and prep work now.

If there’s even a chance you’ll make a move in 2026, let’s talk strategy so you stay one step ahead of the game.

Saving to buy a home? Don’t forget your closing costs.

They’re not the same everywhere. In some states they average roughly $2-3K. In others, nearly $20K.

This map shows the state averages. Use it as a ballpark for your budget, but be sure to work with a local agent and lender to get your real number before you start shopping. Because it depends on taxes where you live, the home’s price, and more.

DM me if you want an estimate on what you can expect to pay in our area. Or, if you’re looking for tips on how to bring that number down.
