US Home buyers are frustrated by 7% mortgage rates/Boräntor



Since the Federal Reserve started hiking interest rates in mid-2022, mortgage rates have doubled, surpassing 7%.

So “a 6% mortgage rate is not unusual historically,” Duncan said. 

“It’s just that people saw these 3% mortgage rates and got spoiled. But that’s a historical anomaly. … 

Unless there’s some catastrophic economic event for the broader economy, we wouldn’t expect to see mortgage rates back at 3% in our lifetimes.”
