Mortgage rates slipped below a key psychological threshold after President Trump ordered $200 billion in mortgage-backed securities purchases through Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. In this episode of Real Estate News for Investors, Kathy Fettke breaks down what the announcement means for mortgage rates, housing demand, and real estate-related stocks.

We cover how markets reacted, why rates falling into the 5% range matters for buyers and investors, and what analysts say could happen next if mortgage bond purchases move forward as planned. If you're tracking affordability, transaction volume, or housing momentum heading into 2026, this is a development you'll want to understand.
