Paul Morris has the question your buyers are thinking: Should we wait for rates to come down? Right now, rates are at a one-year high, and the Fed is likely to raise them again soon. As an agent, it’s crucial to be informed and provide your clients with the right answers. In this episode of the Forward One podcast, Paul breaks down the numbers you can't afford to miss, including the current 30-year fixed rate and the median home price. With pending sales down 5.4%, buyers are hesitating, and it’s essential to understand why. Paul shares insights on how to approach clients who are considering waiting for lower rates and why that might not be the best strategy. Instead of competing on predictions, focus on the facts and simple math to show your value as an agent. Paul also discusses the importance of knowing your local market numbers, which can set you apart from the competition. By pulling key metrics like active inventory and median days on market, you can provide your clients with the most relevant information. Remember, the house is the decision, and the rate is just a condition. If you’re ready to elevate your real estate game, tune in and learn how to master your market.

Paul Mark Morris opens the Forward One podcast with a “waiting market” thesis as national median home prices hit a record $440,600 while pending home sales fell 5.4% in June across all regions. He reviews key data: existing sales running near 4 million annually, inventory at 1.56 million (4.6 months’ supply), first-time buyers at 33%, and the 30-year fixed rate at 6.58% (second weekly increase), with daily quotes briefly touching 6.85%. He explains how war-related oil spikes and inflation pressures are moving the 10-year Treasury and mortgage rates, and previews a Fed meeting where a hike is a live possibility. He frames the market as a standoff, not a crash, offers rate/payment examples, urges agents to use local MLS metrics, and provides three client conversation frameworks for buyers, sellers, and crash fears, noting low distressed sales and only 2% of mortgaged homes underwater.*More from Paul*Paul: https://www.instagram.com/paulmarkmorris/Forward One Media: https://www.instagram.com/forwardonemedia/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@forwardonepodcast*Presented by Forward One Real Estate*https://www.,forwardone.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/forwardonerealestate/Timestamps00:00:00 Buyers Are Waiting00:00:47 This Week’s Market Setup00:01:51 Key Numbers Dashboard00:04:55 Mortgage Rates Explained00:09:33 The Standoff Opportunity00:14:53 Why Rates Moved00:18:47 Fed Meeting Watch00:23:09 Local Metrics That Matter00:27:41 Client Conversation Frameworks00:36:32 Crash Talk With Data00:41:08 Wrap Up And Next Week
