December 2024 Market Update

Quick Take:

Elevated mortgage rates dominated the housing market in 2024, and 2025 may look similar if inflation starts to ramp up again. Corporations are already increasing prices before more tariffs kick in despite record profits over the past four years.
During November 2024, the average 30-year mortgage rate rose 9 bps, adding to the 64 bps increase in October. Since September 2024, the Fed has cut rates by 75 bps, and we expect another 25 bps cut at their December meeting, barring a significant uptick in November inflation data.
Sales rose 3.4% month over month, up slightly from last month, which saw the lowest level of sales in modern history. At the same time, inventory rose to its highest level since 2020. Higher inventory levels created more opportunity for sales, although we don’t expect sales volume to increase significantly until spring 2025.
