Mortgage rates have quietly hit a major turning point — dipping to their lowest levels in nearly three years. After hovering around 7% last year, rates briefly touched the 5s and are now settling into the low 6% range, with experts expecting them to stay there for a while. Why does this matter? Because even a 1% drop can mean hundreds less per month on a mortgage, more buying power, and more flexibility in where and what you can buy. For many buyers — especially first-time buyers — this shift could be the difference between sitting out and stepping in. According to the National Association of Realtors, rates at or below 6% open the door for millions more households to afford a home, with an estimated 550,000 buyers expected to move forward within the next year or so. That means demand is likely to pick up. Bottom line: this isn’t just good news — it’s a real opportunity. If buying didn’t pencil out before, now’s the time to re-run the numbers and see what’s possible. Let’s take a look at how today’s rates could work for you. Contact Neli Spurrell to get started.

Mortgage rates are down a full percentage point since last year. That recent drop doesn’t sound dramatic, until you realize how much it can already save you on the typical $400k loan. Compared to buying in January of last year, that saves you more than $330 a month and almost $120k over the life of your loan. That’s the difference just one year makes. If buying didn’t work for you last year, let’s re-run the numbers and see if 2026 could finally be your year.

A lot of people may think their credit score isn’t good enough to buy a home. That may be because the median buyer’s score is pretty high (775) – so people assume they need near-perfect credit. But that’s not necessarily the case. Data shows some buyers today are qualifying with scores in the mid-600s. And the median for the lowest 10% of buyer scores is 660. So, you may have more options than you think. If your credit is what’s been holding you back, take this as your sign to reach out to a lender to talk through your options.
