Ok I'll play...what makes you think this...and would have to happen for this prediction to occur?



I posted above why i think that could happen

Not to mention Fannie Mae predicts 4.3% rates

quote:

Fannie Mae has predicted that the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage will drop to an average of 4.5% in 2023, REALTOR magazine
that was in Sept 2022

As do the Banks which is why they are charging so much (and covering inflation)
This was going to happen before Covid anyways but that fricked it up lioe everything else

hate him just as much as you do but this is the Fed.

Not sure who you quoted for the above response, but wondering something...what rate are mortgage providers paying now compared to a year/6 months ago?

Same Fannie Mae that fricked us in the mid 2000’s? And we had to bail out to the tune of 116 Billion taxpayer dollars?

inflation, the economy, employment AND Fed policy ALL affect mortgage rates. The fed funds rate is the benchmark at which banks borrow and lend money and any increase is passed directly to consumers.
And all these comparisons to 1980 fail to include the national debt that must be serviced at higher rates.

1980 - Debt $980B 32% debt to GDP
2022 - Debt $30T 123% debt to GDP

Comparing todays interest rates to the 1980s is apples to hand grenades
