What happened
Captrust Vice President and Financial Adviser Kathryn McCall discussed housing market trends on the YouTube platform. The discussion focused on how mortgage rates have risen above 7% for the first time since January 2025, following a month of steady increases. McCall noted that these higher rates increase the cost for homebuyers, limiting their purchasing power, and are also affecting sellers.

Why it matters
The discussion outlined that buyers should ensure housing costs remain under 30% of net take-home pay. McCall suggested that the current interest rate environment could lead to a decline in housing prices due to fewer new market entrants.
