Mortgage Rates Top 7% as Housing Market Questions Grow
Original: Mortgage Rates Exceed 7%. Where Will the Housing Market Go?
US mortgage rates have climbed above 7%, a threshold not seen in years, leaving buyers facing significantly higher monthly payments and sellers facing reduced demand. Commentators are debating whether the housing market will cool further, see prices fall, or remain tight because of low housing supply and homeowners locked into lower rates.
Why now: Rising borrowing costs directly affect home affordability, so buyers, sellers and investors are watching where rates and prices head next.
