As a realtor, I keep a close eye on economic trends that impact the housing market, and the Fed's interest rate decisions are at the top of that list. Recently, the Fed shifted its focus from controlling inflation to concerns about the job market, leading to an aggressive 50 basis point cut to kick off a new easing cycle. This change can have a big impact on mortgage rates, home affordability, and buyer behavior. If you're thinking of buying or selling, it’s important to understand how this shift might affect you.
