Why Did the Fed Rate Cut Lead to Higher Mortgage Rates?

Rates went up when everyone expected them to drop. Here’s what really happened and what it means for the 2025 housing market

📊 Why Did the Fed Rate Cut Lead to Higher Mortgage Rates? The Fed cut rates by a quarter point, so why did mortgage rates jump instead of falling?  Many assume that these rate cuts directly lower mortgage rates, but that’s not how it works. Mortgage rates actually follow the bond market, specifically the 10-year Treasury yield, not the Fed’s short-term rate.  The Fed’s long-term outlook changed yesterday, and the markets reacted to this negative news—pushing mortgage rates higher.   🔍 Here’s What Happened:   📈 Inflation Outlook: The Fed expects inflation to persist into 2025, pushing Treasury yields and mortgage rates higher. 🤔 2025 Rate Cut Expectations: The Fed reduced its 2025 rate cut projections from four to two, signaling less aggressive cuts ahead. 🏛️ New Administration: Uncertainty around tariffs and the new administration’s economic policies.     💭 My Take: The Fed seems lost as they are unclear how the new administration’s policies will play out. They are now signaling fewer rate cuts than originally expected, which means higher interest rates are here to stay for most of 2025. Despite elevated mortgage rates this year, LA County still experienced a 7% price growth.  So, what does this all mean? Don’t wait for a market crash, it’s not likely to happen.  📞 Ready to Take the Next Step?

L.A. Zoning Plan Keeps 72% of City for Single-Family Homes

Single-family homes in Los Angeles will be more valuable than ever

🏠 L.A. Zoning Plan Keeps 72% of City for Single-Family Homes The Los Angeles City Planning Commission voted to keep 72% of the city’s residential land zoned for single-family homes, restricting where new apartment buildings can be constructed. This decision is part of a state-mandated rezoning effort, as L.A. must plan for over 450,000 new homes by 2029.   🔑 Key Takeaways: 🏘️ Zoning Limits: New housing will be built mostly in areas already zoned for apartments, leaving single-family zones largely untouched. 📣 Public Debate: Housing advocates called for more density to combat housing shortages, while homeowners voiced concerns about property values and overdevelopment. 🏞️ L.A.’s limited land and strict zoning will keep new construction low, especially for entry-level homes, driving higher home values and better returns for single-family homeowners. 🏠 New Construction Reality Check I’ve put together a link to new construction homes under $1.5M in L.A.—but options are limited.  I found one detached single-family home priced at $1.5M, complete with an ADU. Check it out HERE to see what the cheapest new detached home in L.A. looks like right now.     Explore 2024 New Construction Homes in L.A under $1.5M List of New Homes in L.A over $1.5M 💭 My Take: Most new construction single-family homes aren’t entry-level anymore. With limited land to build on, the best opportunities for new entry-level homes seem to be in Orange County, San Bernardino, and Santa Clarita—areas with longer commutes and a different lifestyle than L.A.’s urban core. 📊 Limited Land for New Homes = Long-Term Appreciation for Single-Family Homes   🏡 Protected Suburbs: Most of L.A.'s suburban neighborhoods will remain untouched and limited in supply, preserving their unique character and desirability. 💰 What It Means: Low supply equals higher long-term appreciation for single-family homes as demand continues to rise   How to Strategize on this Zoning Decision Jeremiah Vancans Real Estate Agent Vancans Group | Compass jeremiah@vancansgroup.com vancansgroup.com CELL: 310-363-1416  OFFICE: 310-299-9305 DRE: 01944484 ⭐ Trusted by Clients: With over 200 five-star reviews, our past clients rave about our exceptional customer service and commitment to transparent transactions.

12.1% Sales Jump + New Loan Limits—What It Means for You

Pending Home Sales Jump 12.1% Year-Over-Year For the four weeks ending November 24th, U.S. pending home sales increased by 12.1% compared to last year, according to Redfin—the largest surge since May 2021.

This uptick highlights renewed energy in the market, creating opportunities for both buyers and sellers as we head into the holidays. Check out my article last week about Rates, Prices and 2025 Market Trends.     2025 Loan Limits Increase for High-Cost Areas The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) has raised conforming loan limits for 2025, offering buyers in high-cost areas increased flexibility to finance larger homes or multi-unit properties. These adjustments aim to make homeownership more accessible in pricier markets. Here’s a breakdown of the new high-cost area loan limits: 🏠 1 Unit: Up to $1,209,750 🏢 2 Units: Up to $1,548,975 🏘️ 3 Units: Up to $1,872,225 🏨 4 Units: Up to $2,326,875 With these increases, buyers can take advantage of larger loans to purchase their dream homes or build their investment portfolios.
