The latest Real Estate news

Right now, there are numerous factors driving the real estate news cycle, not the least of which is fluctuating interest rates. Mortgage rates rose rapidly throughout 2022, which has had a massive impact on the housing market across the board — and directly affected the price and demand of real estate, home prices, and government policies related to tax incentives, deductions, and subsidies that can boost or hinder demand. 

And, while it appears that the Federal Reserve may be prepared to slow the uptick in the Fed rate, it’s likely that rates will continue to have an impact on the industry in some form throughout some or all of 2023.
