Fed rate drop, refinance rush, and a land price reset: what does it mean for the housing market now. Henry Washington, Kathy, and James explain why refinance applications jumped roughly 30 percent after 30-year mortgage rates slipped near 6.39 percent, how today’s ARMs actually work, and why locking a refi now can beat waiting for future interest rates to fall. They outline a practical housing market prediction and forecast, expecting more transactions rather than a surge in home prices or housing prices, plus timing tips for listing into the spring when buyer activity historically rises. You will also get a reality check on the “great wealth transfer” and reverse mortgages, along with a land strategy playbook for a potential price decline, from targeting big-lot houses and infill splits to using seller financing to create equity and cash flow.
