Market Update

October 2024 Market Update

Quick Take:

Affordability improved dramatically in Q3 2024 with the monthly mortgage payment for a 30-year loan down 10%. Prices are contracting slightly, which is the seasonal norm.
In September, the average 30-year mortgage rate declined for the third month to 6.08%, a 1.14% drop from the 2024 high reached in early May. The Fed also cut rates in September and will likely continue cutting them over the next six months.
Sales declined 2.5% month over month, falling to the lowest level in modern history, while inventory rose to its highest level since 2020. Better affordability hasn’t yet translated to higher sales.
