The average interest rate on the most popular U.S. home loan rose to its highest level since 2001 as tightening financial conditions weigh on the housing sector, data from the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) showed Wednesday.
The average contract rate on a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage rose by 22 basis points to 7.16% for the week ended Oct. 21 while the MBA's Market Composite Index, a measure of mortgage loan application volume, fell 1.7% from a week earlier. Mortgage application activity is at its slowest pace since 1997.
Mortgage rates have more than doubled since the beginning of the year, as the Federal Reserve pursues an aggressive path of interest rate hikes to rein in stubbornly high inflation.

Mortgages were 18% under Carter and people still bought. If you're willing to hedge you could buy at a high rate and lower price and refinance later if things level out.

And my retirement savings are at about 60% of end of year value. That’s tough as I live on the earnings. Lots of folks in my boots. It’s not a great time to be retired.

Failure Joe and his administration are fricking disasters. Thanks to the idiots who voted for this garbage. We appreciate it.

Just taking houses longer to sell in my neighborhood. People are still getting asking, or just slightly above it. No crazy bidding wars anymore aside from one or two properties.

Consumers were spoiled when the rates were very low. A correction was due.
It doesn’t matter if it’s a sellers market or a buyers market it doesn’t stay that way - it always shifts
