An interesting uptick in the pendings count. It was probably from a few longer negotiations during the wild two-day drop in mortgage rates to around 6%.
By the time the Fed gets around to lowering their rate, it will all be priced in and there probably won’t be much impact. For those waiting for lower rates, don’t be surprised if they don’t get much better than 6%, and I think you can probably get that today by having the seller buy down your rate with a point or two.
