“The spike in mortgage interest rates last fall chilled buyer activity. And led to a slowdown in home sales and price growth. Fixed-rate mortgage rates have dropped 0.6 percentage points since November 2018 and today are lower than they were a year ago. With interest rates at this level, we expect a solid home-buying season this spring.” – Frank Nothaft, Chief Economist for CoreLogic
