Mortgage Rate Trends: Mortgage rates have remained stable, with 30-year fixed-rate mortgages averaging 6.46% and 15-year fixed-rate mortgages at 5.62%, but are expected to gradually decrease through 2024 due to softer economic data.
Market Impact: Despite recent declines in mortgage rates, potential homebuyers remain unmotivated, and experts suggest that a further drop of about one percentage point may be necessary to stimulate buyer demand.
