Here are some quotes from this month’s report:

  • A return to a normal spread between the government borrowing rate and the home purchase borrowing rate will bring the 30-year mortgage rates down to around 6%.
  • The housing market is expected to face continued uncertainty heading into 2023 as consumers, financial markets, and policymakers work through their respective challenges in today’s economy.
  • Because we see a slowdown, and we see the inflation comparisons start to become more and more favorable, you’ll start to see that inflation number move lower, lower, lower, lower. And as a result,mortgage rates should move similarly on a downward trajectory—probably giving us around 5%, below 5% within the next six months.
  • Homeowners have very high levels of tappable home equity today, providing a cushion to withstand potential price declines, but also preventing housing distress from turning into a foreclosure. . . . the result will likely be more of a foreclosure ‘trickle’ than a ‘tsunami.’
