This week’s big question—are mortgage rates headed higher or lower?

  • Short-term rates are softening with Fed policy shifts.

  • Long-term mortgage rates (tied to the 10-Year Treasury) remain stubborn, edging up thanks to inflation concerns.

  • Bottom line: Don’t wait for the “perfect” rate—opportunities in St. Augustine and Palm Coast real estate could pass you by.
