Declining home sales are in the news this morning, as the median sales price of existing homes fell more than 13% over the past year. In addition, New Home Sales came in below expectations--falling to their lowest reading in 27 years.
During times like this, it's important to remember that while inventories are high and need to come down for housing prices to stabilize, the combination of abundant inventory and low interest rates does provide a great opportunity for buyers to purchase homes below market prices and at great monthly payment rates.
Currently, Mortgage Bonds are clawing their way back, after opening lower this morning. For now, I recommend floating as we watch to see if prices can improve more.
