Show Notes
Homebuyers face a challenging market in 2026, with mortgage rates hovering around six percent and low inventory due to hesitant sellers. Despite optimism, rates may not drop significantly, and many potential buyers are waiting for rates below six percent. Experts advise focusing on affordability and not chasing predictions, as factors like inflation and unemployment drive mortgage rates. Historically, todays rates are moderate, but affordability remains a concern in many states, with median home prices taking nearly five years of income to cover. The advice is to buy smart, stay within budget, and adapt to the current market conditions.
