sweet spot for buyer

After months on the sidelines, many homebuyers who were priced out by high mortgage rates finally have a chance to make their move. With rates trending down, today’s market has hit the sweet spot for buyers—and this window may not stay open for long.

If you’ve put your move on hold, it’s time to reconsider. Ask yourself: What will other buyers do if rates keep falling? Experts project that more buyers will jump back into the market as rates ease. A recent survey shows that over half of homeowners would be motivated to buy if rates drop below 6%. We’re already in the low 6% range, so if rates dip even lower, the market will get more competitive.

Increased competition can push prices up, offsetting the benefit of slightly lower rates. As Nadia Evangelou from the National Association of Realtors explains, “Increased demand puts upward pressure on home prices, especially in markets with housing shortages.”

Right now, you have the advantage. The market is in a sweet spot for buyers—fewer people are actively looking, meaning less competition for you. Mortgage rates have already eased, making homeownership more affordable, and there are more homes on the market than we’ve seen in years.
