A prolonged government shutdown is creating fresh challenges for the housing market—from delayed closings to missing economic data just as the Fed prepares for another potential rate cut. In this month’s market update, Ruben Gonzalez and Gabi Brennesholtz unpack the real-world impact on homebuyers, sellers, and real estate professionals. From stalled USDA loans to surprising strength in existing home sales, they break down how lower mortgage rates, supply trends, and economic uncertainty are shaping a complicated but opportunity-filled market.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- How the government shutdown is delaying closings and disrupting flood insurance and USDA lending
- Why conventional and FHA loans remain largely unaffected—and what that means for buyers
- How missing data could influence the Fed’s next move and mortgage rate trends
- Why lower mortgage rates are boosting existing home sales even amid broader economic concerns
- What rising inventory and steady prices reveal about the balance between supply and demand
- How buyers and real estate professionals can take advantage of today’s “market of the moment”
