How does the Fed's rate cut affect home prices?
The Federal Reserve's 50 basis point rate cut has potential homebuyers and sellers wondering what affect it will have on the housing market. It's the Fed's first rate cut since March 2020 and it lowers the benchmark federal funds rate to a range of 4.75% to 5%. Real estate experts expect the rate cut will bring more buyers and sellers to market, potentially increasing the inventory and creating momentum for price competition.
