🔮 Is Waiting for Lower Rates a Gamble?

Mortgage rates have experienced a rollercoaster this year, dipping to 6.08% in Sept before climbing back to 6.78% in Nov. While current rates are still lower than last year, they remain challenging for many prospective homeowners.

The Federal Reserve’s recent rate cuts aim to lower borrowing costs, but their impact on mortgage rates has been limited so far. Experts suggest rates will likely decline gradually, with significant relief expected in 2025 as inflation eases.

For potential buyers, waiting for rates to drop further may be a gamble. If you can afford a home now, experts advise moving forward, as the long-term cost of waiting might outweigh short-term savings. Another Fed rate cut is expected in Dec, which could further influence the market. *Read Source
