But with falling rates, what happens next?

Lower Rates Coming, But Gradually – While rates have been dropping, they’re still way above early 2022’s lows (around 3%). Experts predict they’ll dip further, but gradually. Don’t expect a sudden drop!

Homes Won’t Become Dramatically Cheaper – Dropping rates make homes more affordable, but don’t expect a miracle. While prices might decrease slightly, they likely won’t plummet. However, the good news is they won’t skyrocket…
