The real estate market can be significantly impacted by interest rates. When they’re low, it’s more affordable to borrow money to purchase a home which increases the demand and raises prices. When interest rates are high, it’s more difficult and less affordable to purchase a home which decreases demand and lowers prices.

Any change in interest rates can impact existing mortgage and the value of homes. They are crucial in understanding the overall health of the real estate market. If you have any questions about buying or selling, connect anytime! It would be a privilege to serve as your Realtor.
