Happy Nowruz!

Nowruz marks the Persian New Year and is celebrated on the Spring Equinox with traditional customs, dances, gift exchanges, poetry, and of course, food. We wish all of our Persian friends and family members a very happy Nowruz!
Anyone can appreciate this.

If you ever needed a visualization of the rising cost of homeownership, this chart should do the trick. Tracking median house sales price fluctuations by region since 1990, you can see a significant shift to the West and South and away from the Northeast, even as prices have appreciated across the country. Of course, the last spikes we saw in western sales led to the subprime bubble, so it’s good for investors to be cautious.
Stepping into Spring!
/After a weekend of open houses at our new listing, we’re ready for an opportunity to reset. What are you looking forward to about the Spring Equinox?
CHIC (Pearl)
It’s been a rainy winter, and I’m ready for some sunshine! Monday was a nice teaser, but it looks like we’ll have to wait for a real heat wave since the forecast calls for another wet weekend. In the meantime, I’ll get my sunglasses ready.
GEEK (Kevin)
As you’d expect, I’m already feeling the urge to reorganize the garage, clean out the closets, and upgrade outdoor lighting. But first, I need a break — a spring break. Maybe we’ll get in the car and take a drive up the coast. Or we could just sleep!

The 30-Year Fixed Dance
/
After peaking around 7.8% in October 2023, weekly average rates on 30-year fixed mortgages were just under 6.9% in the first week of March 2024. Any other time, we’d be singing from the rooftops, but we’re nowhere near the historic lows we saw just a few years ago. Still, any relief is good news.
