🏡 Home Prices Dip Slightly

In July, the Colorado Springs housing market cooled just a bit—prices edged down slightly, and homes took longer to sell, averaging 48 days on the market. The number of homes for sale rose, giving buyers more choices, but fewer homeowners listed new properties than usual for this time of year. Compared to national trends, our local market is holding steadier, with smaller price drops and more gradual changes. For now, it’s a more balanced playing field between buyers and sellers. *Source

💸 Mortgage Relief? Not So Fast

After briefly dipping earlier this year, mortgage rates have settled in the upper 6% range and may stay there through 2025. While the Federal Reserve held rates steady again in July, two members voted for a cut—offering a glimmer of hope. Still, affordability remains a concern, and timing the market is risky. Experts recommend focusing on your personal financial readiness rather than holding out for the “perfect” rate, and suggest exploring options like float-down rate locks and lender consultations. *Read Source
