The best advice for your move is: don’t try to control what you can’t control

When deciding between buying a home or renting, think about these three important factors.

If you’re worried about home prices falling this year, let the experts reassure you

If you’re thinking about buying a home this year, be sure to consider the long-term financial advantages of homeownership, like home equity.

Buying and owning your own home can have a big impact on your life.

If you’re following mortgage rates because you know they impact your borrowing costs, you may be wondering what the future holds for them. Unfortunately, there’s no easy way to answer that question because mortgage rates are notoriously hard to forecast.  

There’s been a lot of focus on higher mortgage rates and how they’re creating affordability challenges for today’s homebuyers. It’s true that rates climbed dramatically since the record-low we saw during the pandemic.

The 30-year fixed mortgage rate has been bouncing between 6% and 7% this year.

As mortgage rates rose last year, activity in the housing market slowed down. And as a result, homes started seeing fewer offers and stayed on the market longer. That meant some homeowners decided to press pause on selling. Now, however, rates are beginning to come down—and buyers are starting to reenter the market.

The National Association of Realtors declared that 2020's housing market was certainly outperforming 2019's, expressing that home sales would end up being higher than last year's.

So here's what millennial savers and borrowers should know and more improtantly, what to do about it.
