// INTEREST RATES & FINANCING
> Mortgage Rates as of 3/12/2024


Source: mortgagenewsdaily.com
Mortgage rates have increased following a higher-than-expected Consumer Price Index report, yet the situation is nuanced with a smaller rise than previously, suggesting potential for future rate-friendly news.
Main takeaways:
The Consumer Price Index (CPI), a key measure of inflation, reported higher than expected, typically driving interest rates up; however, today's mortgage rate increase was modest compared to the previous report.
Despite the increase, mortgage rates remain below the levels seen before the last significant jump, indicating a positive outlook among investors for inflation and economic trends.
Factors in today's CPI report, including a decrease in a major inflation component, offer a glimpse of hope for those anticipating a downturn in inflation, although immediate lower mortgage rates are unlikely without further data.

// TOP HEADLINES, REPORTS, & INSIGHTS
Utah Among the States with Steepest Home Price-to-Income Ratios in 2024, with housing prices significantly outpacing incomes.

Key takeaways:
Utah emerges as the third least affordable state in the U.S. for buying a home, behind Hawaii and California, reflecting the broader challenge of soaring real estate prices against stagnant incomes.
The median home price in Utah ($533,133) is nearly 12 times the average annual income, highlighting the state's affordability crisis amidst a booming real estate market.
Despite the grim outlook for affordability in Utah and other states, the article suggests exploring various locations and considering seasonality in home prices as strategies for finding more budget-friendly housing options.
Most recent CPI Report revealed elevated inflation again in February, heavily influenced by shelter and gasoline prices, complicating the Federal Reserve's rate decision timeline.

Main takeaways:
Shelter and gasoline prices drove more than 60% of February's inflation increase, with shelter costs alone accounting for a significant portion of the core inflation rise.
The Federal Reserve's hands are somewhat tied regarding housing inflation due to the fundamental issue of a lack of affordable housing and rising development costs, suggesting that a solution lies more in increasing housing supply than in monetary policy adjustments.
Despite the Fed's current policy tightening, shelter costs are anticipated to decline in the coming months, supported by real-time data indicating a slowdown in rent growth, offering a glimmer of hope for future inflation control.
Recent trends suggest that capitalization rates, influenced by bond yield movements, might have reached their zenith, indicating a possible easing in real estate investment pressures.
Key takeaways:
Survey responses from industry professionals indicate a belief that bond yields have peaked, suggesting a relieving pressure on capitalization rates.
The fluctuation in bond yields, particularly the 10-year Treasury bond, and its subsequent stabilization offers a cautiously optimistic outlook for real estate investments.
Despite a general expectation of stabilization, specific real estate segments, such as Class C urban office properties, may continue to experience pressure, reflecting the nuanced impact of broader economic trends.
