Grand Rounds: Interest rates are up - is there any silver lining to buying a home now?

Interest rates are up and buying a home can seem daunting. Doug Crouse with BMO Bank talks about ways to plan now for the future if rates should go down. Is it worth paying points to get a lower rate? What is a loan modification? He also talks about some shake-ups in the physician mortgage space with several banks pulling out of the market or cutting back dramatically.
