About this episode
Mortgage rates just took a sharp dive following Trump’s sweeping tariff announcement—and it’s already sending ripples through the housing market. In today’s episode, we break down what’s behind the sudden drop in rates, how it’s affecting home affordability, and why rising inventory may not be the silver bullet buyers hoped for. From record-high monthly payments to major market shifts in places like Florida and Texas, here’s what you need to know heading into the spring season.
