Predictions for the Summer 2022 housing market

Substantial price gains, intense competition, and more have been known to stifle the home buying process in the past, and now with mortgage rates continuing to be on the rise, what does that mean for potential homebuyers?

For many, higher rates mean increasing price ranges. But when even basic single-family homes are coming with the price tag of a lavish pad these days, buyers are having to choose between postponing their purchase or compromising on their preferred location. “The Fed has promised another interest rate boost. If you’re ready to buy, don’t wait because prices aren’t headed dramatically downwards to what our parents paid. Things might dip a bit, but there’s no cliff dive that’s going to happen," said Tabitha Mazzara, Director of Operations at Mortgage Bank of California.

Forbes Magazine partnered with mortgage and realty experts to make predictions for the housing market this Summer season. Read their full report here.

When you take out a mortgage, what does that do to your credit?

Credit reporting agencies are known to use a short-term ding on your credit score, followed by a significant boost once they see a consistent pattern of regular on-time payments. A mortgage loan can temporarily lower your credit score until you can prove you are capable of handling a large sum of debt.

On average it takes about 5 months to get your credit score back on-track. It is recommended to focus on making consistent on-time payments and keeping other debt responsibilities to a minimum. Remember, not all debt is bad debt and eventually your mortgage will manifest into good debt.

Continued Mortgage Trends

According to Freddie Mac, mortgage rates continue to fall but they still remain above 5% fueling an ongoing problem for buyers trying to break into the market.

In a recent article from CNN they reported on numbers from Freddie Mac showing that at the end of May 2021, a buyer who put 20% down on a $375,500 home, financed the rest with a 30-year, fixed-rate mortgage with an average interest rate of 2.95% would have a $1,258 monthly mortgage payment that included principal and interest.

Today, if a homeowner bought the house at the same price with an average rate of 5.10% they would pay $1,631 a month in principal and interest. That is $373 more each month and $134,140 more in cumulative interest payments over the life of the loan , according to numbers from Freddie Mac. According to CNN "For many people, that several hundred dollars in additional payment a month is the difference between deciding whether to buy a home or rent."

Home prices have skyrocketed by nearly 20% over the last year and mortgage rates have risen faster over the past three months than they have in decades. But the high cost to buy a home is not the only obstacle prospective buyers are facing.

Other hurdles include a lack of available homes for sale that fit the buyer's criteria, bidding wars, and failing to have enough money for a down payment, according to a new study from the National Association of Realtors and Morning Consult.

"Record-high home prices and record-low inventory have made the home buying process exceedingly difficult," said Jessica Lautz, NAR's vice president of demographics and behavioral insights. "Our study shows that, while the inventory crisis is affecting potential buyers of every race, nearly all home buyers agree that homeownership is still an important part of the American Dream."
