Current Mortgage Rate Context

Key Findings

Market headwinds include elevated interest rate pressure (current average ~6.3% on 30-year fixed) alongside a rent up trend; the median market rent of $3,600 and median price per square foot of $275 support rental demand as an alternative exit strategy for owners facing prolonged sales, while elevated rates may constrain purchase affordability and dampen buyer urgency.
