The Fed just met and they decided on no rate hike and no rate cut. So, what does that mean if you're watching and hoping for lower mortgage rates?
The short answer: don't expect this to dramatically change things.
For now, they’re holding steady. But a recent survey from Reuters asked 100 economists what to expect from here – and all 100 said the Fed will do a hike in December.
Now, the Fed doesn't directly set mortgage rates, but their actions do have an impact. Rates will also move based on inflation, economic data, and how financial markets react.
The takeaway? There’s a lot at play here – and we’ll probably see a hike the next time they meet.
Follow me for straightforward updates on what’s actually happening and why it matters for the housing market.
