🏡 Uncertain Times for Springs Homebuyers

In July 2024, Colorado Springs' real estate market experienced a surge in inventory, reaching its highest levels since 2016. Despite a 45.2% year-over-year increase in available homes, sales have remained flat, signaling buyer hesitation amid rising interest rates and economic concerns. While median home prices hit a record $499,000, the market's sluggish pace and increasing price reductions reflect broader uncertainty. As the Federal Reserve considers potential rate cuts, the long-term impact on the housing market is still unclear. Real estate professionals are navigating these changing dynamics, with cautious optimism as the market evolves. *Source

📉 Will the Fed’s Rate Cut Impact Your Mortgage?

Mortgage rates have fallen to their lowest levels in over a year, with the average 30-year fixed rate now at 6.46%. While rates have been gradually decreasing since mid-July, experts expect only modest further declines, even if the Federal Reserve cuts its benchmark interest rate in September. The anticipated rate reduction may stabilize mortgage rates around 6.4% by year's end. Home prices, however, are expected to remain high, particularly for first-time buyers, although increased inventory might offer some relief. Buyers might also consider assumable mortgages to secure lower rates. *Read Source
