Are you feeling stuck in neutral while trying to make sense of the 2025 housing market? Today, Anthony & Manley are breaking down whatâs really going onâusing a little childhood nostalgia to explain why some signals are flashing green, others are red, and most are stuck on yellow.Â
âĄď¸ This episode dives deep into:Â
- Why âhigher for longerâ interest rates may not be the villain
- How single-family home sales are rising despite warning signs
- Why inventory is up, but itâs still not a buyerâs paradise
- How international players might bring down your mortgage rate
- What temporary rate buy-downs are (and why theyâre a game changer)
- Why smart sellers are pricing under the curve
- The difference between economic headlines and what buyers/sellers should actually be doing
đŻ And donât miss our fan-favorite segment: Rapid Fire Buzzwords with Kevin, where we translate confusing mortgage lingo into plain English.
đ ď¸ We define & explain:
⢠Trade Lines in Dispute
⢠Seller Concessions
⢠Rate Buy-Downs
⢠Appraisal Gaps
⢠Contract Contingencies
⢠Closing Costs
⢠Initial Approvals
⢠ARM Loans
