California’s housing market and employment continued to make progress in February. However, recent banking turmoil has caused some uncertainty in the market. The ongoing pressures in the financial system could lead to smaller banks tightening their lending standards, which could negatively impact housing demand. Despite this, the Fed has enacted its ninth rate hike since March 2022, but hinted that there may only be one more to come before the end of the year. This has resulted in mortgage rates falling for the second consecutive week, reaching their lowest level in a month. As a result, many buyers have been motivated to enter the market, with mortgage applications increasing for the third week in a row. In my opinion, this is a great time for potential buyers to take advantage of the lower rates and make their move into the housing market.
