This is serious <a href="https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/investors-stop-worrying-about-rates-in-2024?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=none">interest rate</a> relief for homebuyers, real estate investors, and anyone getting a mortgage. But will mortgage rates fall even further in 2025? A <a href="https://www.housingwire.com/articles/do-mortgage-rates-have-room-to-drop-lower/">new article from HousingWire’s Logan Mohtashami</a> suggests that even more rate relief could be on the way, but not without a series of caveats. To give our take, we’re bringing you a bonus episode where Dave breaks down Logan’s argument, gives his opinion on the hypotheses, and reveals what would have to happen for rates to drop into the low sixes, maybe even into the five percent range!
