NAR Chief Economist Lawrence Yun reacts to the latest data on housing starts.

💭🤔When Will Mortgage Rates Come Down? 🏡📊

Based on current market data, experts think inflation will be more under control and we still may see the Fed lower the Federal Funds Rate this year. It’ll just be later than originally expected. As Mike Fratantoni, Chief Economist at the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA), said in response to the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) decision yesterday:

“The FOMC did not change the federal funds target at its May meeting, as incoming data regarding the strength of the economy and stubbornly high inflation have resulted in a shift in the timing of a first rate cut. We expect mortgage rates to drop later this year, but not as far or as fast as we previously had predicted.”

In the simplest sense, what this says is that mortgage rates should still come down later this year. But timing can shift as new employment and economic data come in, geopolitical uncertainty remains, and more. This is one of the reasons it’s usually not a good strategy to try to time the market. An article in Bankrate gives buyers this advice:

“ . . . trying to time the market is generally a bad idea. If buying a house is the right move for you now, don’t stress about trends or economic outlooks.”

Bottom Line
If you have questions about what’s happening in the housing market and what that means for you, connect with a trusted real estate professional.

Through the end of last year, new construction and new listings were the *actual* factors for home sales being down. This is specific to Milwaukee -

"Through November, 1,510 new construction permits were taken out in the 4-county area in 2023, 16.3% below the same period in 2022, continuing a years’ long period of low production. New construction would normally add 3,000 - 4,000 units to the market annually, but that market segment has been down by about 50% since the Great Recession."

Our final nomination for Carroll’s Inspiration List comes from Kelly Gehringer in Carroll’s MARCOM department. Kelly nominates Art Jones, adjunct instructor for Carroll’s introduction to social media & community management course.

Art is a natural-born storyteller. He has worked with some of the best brands in the world because of his innate ability to get to the heart of the matter by using his distinct voice. After managing social media for the University, Art went on to earn a Master of Education in Adult, Community, and Professional Learning degree from Carroll.

This spring, he brought that experience back into the classroom to teach a social media course here at Carroll. As an educator, Art incorporates inclusion, belonging and empathy into all his coursework. He believes that our strength as a community lies in our diversity – and that we are more vital together as a unit. His goal is to provide a safe, fair and prosperous learning environment, where all can thrive. In Art’s classroom, every learner has potential, and every student deserves the opportunity to be better than they were the day before.

“While I could list off Art’s countless professional achievements, I am most impressed with his strong character. Whether you need life advice or a restaurant recommendation, Art is always there. Fiercely loyal and reliable, he will always go out of his way to make sure you are seen, supported and celebrated.”
