Want to know the #1 task sellers struggle with? It’s setting the asking price. If you sell without the expertise of a pro, you’re likely to price it too high. That’ll turn away buyers, cause it to sit on the market for longer, and ultimately, may require a price drop. That’s not something you want to happen. Remember, if the price isn’t compelling, it isn’t selling. So, let’s work together to find the pricing sweet spot. #sellyourhouse #expertadvice

While the Federal Reserve doesn’t set mortgage rates, rates can be influenced by the Fed’s monetary policy. And all eyes are on their next move. One of the things they’re looking at is the direction of inflation. Since inflation has come down over the past year and is holding pretty steady right now, odds look good that they’ll continue to cut the Federal Funds Rate. And that should set the stage for mortgage rates to follow in the months ahead. #housingmarket #mortgagerates
