Monday Market Update – June 24, From the Desk of Amy Calandrino at Beyond Commercial
This week in commercial real estate and markets, here’s what’s moving and shaking from our office at Beyond Commercial, around Orlando, and on the national scene.
1. National Perspective: Lower Mortgage Rates
The latest data from Freddie Mac’s Primary Mortgage Market Survey indicates a decrease in mortgage rates, with the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage now averaging 6.95%. This is good news for those looking to buy as lower mortgage rates improve affordability and potentially invigorate the housing market by making financing more accessible. While the rates have fluctuated recently, the overall trend points towards a slight cooling off, which can be a critical factor for buyers and investors in the real estate market. More details can be found on Freddie Mac’s [website]
