Housing Affordability Worsens: Housing Market Report

Selling Real Estate
“I Can’t Afford To Buy a Home.” Housing affordability is at one of its lowest points in over a year. This is despite a dip of mortgage interest rates. So, even though interest rates have decreased from a year ago, it’s still more expensive for the average homebuyer to purchase a home.

In today’s housing market update, I discuss the latest real estate market news and I also share the latest housing update regarding mortgage interest rates.

Fannie Mae released their most recent home buying sentiment survey today. They found that an increasing share of consumers believe it’s a BAD time to BUY a home, while the majority believe it’s a GOOD time to SELL.

According to the National Association of Realtors (NAR), compared to one year ago, affordability declined in July as the median family income only rose by 2.3% while the monthly mortgage payment surged by 16%. This may be one of the reasons why homebuyer sentiment is low.

Also, due to a recent uptick in mortgage rates, the total number of mortgage applications nationwide decreased by almost 7%. The main driver of this dip was from a drop in refinance applications.

To give you a quick mortgage interest rates update, according to the Mortgage News Daily the average 30yr fixed rate mortgage is 3.15% for the current mortgage rates (at the time of filming this video). This is mixed news if you’re a homebuyer right now or if you’re a homeowner looking to refinance.

Comment below: what’s your housing market 2021 forecast and housing market forecast 2021? Do you think a housing crash 2021 will happen and there will be a housing crash due to a housing bubble, a 2021 housing market crash 2021 or are your housing market predictions that the real estate market 2021 and home prices 2021 will continue to surge?
