I doubt rates are going to drop anytime soon. The current administration's policies want inflation. That means the Fed has to raise interest rates to try and dry up the money in circulation. The fed is signaling slower rate increases but who knows what they will actually end up doing. They can't identify the source of inflation or even see a recession staring them in the face. But as inflation goes up, so will rents. If the cost is similar you might want to lock in a fixed housing payment instead of being vulnerable to rent increases. You should probably be having this conversation with a trusted real estate friend or a financial advisor.
No forsure, I think what I am looking for here is for someone to tell me that what I am considering doing is a good idea or a completely awful one.
I appreciate you chiming in and I have a lot to think about. I love this community and people like you remind me that I am never alone. Thank you again and God bless you pede.
