We wanted to take a moment to update you on the recent Federal Reserve meeting and how it could impact your mortgage and financial planning.
What Happened at the Fed Meeting? During their recent meeting, the Federal Reserve (often referred to as "the Fed") reviewed the current economic landscape, including factors such as inflation, employment rates, and overall economic growth. The Fed decreased the central bank's federal fund's rate by a half percentage point, reflecting their ongoing strategy to manage economic stability. According to many experts, the Fed is predicted to continue to shift in this direction.
What This Means for Mortgage Interest Rates: The Fed doesn’t directly set mortgage rates, but their decisions heavily influence them.There could be an opportunity for lower mortgage rates, which might make now a great time to consider buying or refinancing.
What Should You Do? If you’re thinking about buying a home, refinancing your current loan, or simply want to review your options, now is the perfect time to get in touch. As your dedicated mortgage professionals, we're here to help you navigate these changes and find the best mortgage solution for your needs.
