It never has. What is happening in Austin is not what is happening in Cleveland. What is true for a three-bedroom in the suburbs of Dallas has almost nothing to do with a two-bedroom in San Francisco. Before you do anything else, narrow your focus to the specific market you are shopping in and stop reading national headlines as if they apply to you personally.</p>
<p>The arithmetic here is brutal and worth understanding clearly. A buyer who financed a $400,000 home at three percent in 2021 pays roughly $1,686 per month on principal and interest. That same loan at a seven percent rate costs $2,661. That gap of nearly a thousand dollars a month is why transaction volume has fallen to levels not seen in decades. Volume collapsed. Prices mostly did not.</p>

That is a real problem, and it is not going away quickly. A market can stay unaffordable for longer than most buyers expect to wait. What it means, practically, is that the pool of qualified buyers is smaller than it was three years ago.</p>

The difference between a 680 score and a 760 score can mean a half-point or more in rate. If your score has room to improve, talk to your loan officer about specific steps to raise it before you apply formally.</p>

Ask your lender for a Loan Estimate as early in the process as possible.</p>

The homes that are priced correctly for current conditions are still moving. They are going to the buyers who treated the process like the major financial decision it is.</p>
