03.06.23 Mortgage Rates Update

Average Interest Rates March

On Monday, Nerdwallet released the average mortgage rates in the country.

The 30-year and 5-Year ARM interest rates are now above 7%. We haven’t seen rates over 7% since November. With the Federal Reserve meeting on March 21-22nd, we expect for rates to keep creeping up in anticipation of the Fed raising rates again. We can hope that a raise in wages may offset the rate increases, but we know that an increase in wages isn’t happening for every homebuyer out there.

Luckily, in places like New Orleans, homebuyers can be a little more creative in home purchases. Buyers can look into multi-family homes to help with the mortgage payments. Want to learn more about your multi-family home options? Reach out to our advisors now!
