Mortgage Rates Could Hit 6% Again—Here's Why

Mortgage rates are inching closer to 6% again—not because the Fed is cutting rates, but because mortgage spreads are finally tightening. In this episode, Kathy Fettke unpacks what that means, how close we are to "normal" spreads for the first time since 2023, and why this shift could be a game-changer for buyers and investors. You'll also get a fresh look at this week's housing inventory numbers, price cuts, and buyer activity trends that could shape the second half of 2025. If you've been waiting for better conditions to jump into real estate, now's the time to start planning.
