// INTEREST RATES & FINANCING
> Mortgage Rates as of 3/20/2024


Source: mortgagenewsdaily.com
The mortgage market braces for potential volatility today, with the Federal Reserve's announcement poised to influence direction, as rates have recently approached their 2024 high.
Main takeaways:
After a losing streak, average 30-year fixed mortgage rates have nudged back into the low 7s, flirting with the highest levels seen in 2024.
The Federal Reserve's upcoming "Fed day" includes a policy statement, a press conference with the Fed Chair, and the highly anticipated summary of economic projections (SEP), which could either uphold the current rate ceiling or shatter it.
While the Fed Funds Rate doesn't directly set mortgage rates, anticipated changes in the rate's outlook—whether more or less aggressive than expected—will significantly influence mortgage rate movements.

// TOP HEADLINES, REPORTS, & INSIGHTS
Recent data have led to an upward revision of mortgage rate forecasts by the Fannie Mae Economic and Strategic Research Group, casting a shadow over home sales and mortgage originations in 2024.
Main takeaways:
Revised forecasts now predict the 30-year fixed mortgage rate to end the year at 6.4%, an increase from previous estimates, driven by stronger-than-expected jobs numbers and inflation data.
Despite mixed labor market indicators and potential for resumed disinflation, recent data may not assure the Federal Reserve enough confidence to ease monetary policy soon, keeping mortgage rates "higher for longer."
The housing market is expected to face challenges from high prices and elevated interest rates, but an uptrend in existing home sales is anticipated, thanks to life event-driven housing demand and a slight increase in new home listings.
A recent settlement with the National Association of Realtors may lead to significant changes in how real estate agents are compensated, potentially ending the era of 6% commissions on home sales.
Main takeaways:
The settlement challenges the traditional model where sellers determine the commission for both the buyer’s and seller’s agents, a practice that critics argue inflates commission rates unnecessarily.
Changes introduced by the settlement will allow for more negotiation over agent commissions, possibly lowering the costs associated with buying and selling homes and impacting the real estate agent profession.
Despite the National Association of Realtors facing a hefty $1.8 billion jury verdict and agreeing to a $418 million payout over four years without admitting wrongdoing, these reforms, pending judicial approval, aim to transform commission structures starting July.
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.
