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.

🏡📊 HOME PRICES ARE UP! WAIT… NOW THEY’RE DOWN? WHAT’S REALLY GOING ON?

If you’ve been following the real estate headlines lately, you might be a little confused. One article says home prices are rising, while another says they’re falling. 🤔

So, which one is right?

The answer might surprise you… BOTH!

Here’s something I remind people of all the time: Real estate is LOCAL! 📍

What’s happening nationally isn’t necessarily what’s happening in Wellsville, Ottawa, Gardner, Baldwin City, or even the next neighborhood over.

🏡 A home in Wellsville may experience a completely different market than a similar home in Olathe.

📍 Franklin County doesn’t always follow the same trends as Johnson County.

📊 Even within the same community, price range, condition, and available inventory can make a big difference.

That’s why I believe it’s important to look beyond the national headlines and pay attention to what’s actually SELLING in our communities.

After more than 23 years in real estate, one thing I’ve learned is that there is no one-size-fits-all real estate market.

💗 Whether you’re buying, selling, or simply curious about your home’s value, I’m always happy to share what I’m seeing right here in our local market.

📍 LET'S BRING THIS CLOSER TO HOME!
In September, the median asking price in Wellsville was $265,000, compared to $285,000 in Ottawa. Across Franklin County, median asking prices were up approximately 9.5% from a year earlier.
Meanwhile, the Kansas City region reported a 3.4% annual increase in its median sold price.
Different areas. Different measurements. Different stories. That's exactly why local market knowledge matters!

In case you haven’t heard, 27% of homes sold in September were bought with cash, according to NAR. That’s more than 1 in...

In case you haven’t heard, 27% of homes sold in September were bought with cash, according to NAR. That’s more than 1 in 4.

When you hear a number like that, it’s easy to wonder how that’s even possible nowadays – especially with so many people struggling with affordability.

You might picture wealthy investors with deep pockets…but not all cash buyers are who you'd think.

Some are just regular homeowners who’ve built up enough equity over the years to sell their house and buy their next one in cash.

So sure, affordability is tight. But that doesn't mean buying a home today is only possible for the wealthy or big investors.

If you own a home and you’ve lived there for a while, you may be in a better position to move than you think.

Want to know how much equity you have? Let’s find out what it could do for your next move.
