Mortgage rates are continuing to hover near their lowest levels in the past couple of weeks, with todayโ€™s average 30-year fixed rate sitting around 6.59%. While markets are still reacting to global events and economic news, we are seeing some encouraging stability heading into summer.

For buyers, even modest improvements in rates can increase purchasing power and create more confidence to move forward rather than waiting on the sidelines.

For sellers, stable rates are equally important. When buyers feel more confident about monthly payments, we typically see stronger activity, more serious showings, and better momentum in the market overall. Homes that are priced well and presented properly are still attracting attention, especially as inventory remains limited in many areas.

With inflation and bond markets continuing to shift, rates may still fluctuate in the coming weeks, but current trends suggest gradual improvement rather than major increases.

The reality is this: real estate is still moving. Buyers and sellers who stay informed and prepared are putting themselves in the best position to succeed, regardless of where rates move week to week.

If you have been thinking about making a move, curious about inventory levels, or interested about market conditions feel free to reach out. ๐Ÿก

๐Ÿก April 2026 Market Check In: Remember when I said the spring pipeline was full and April closings would deliver? Well, they delivered.

Closed sales jumped 14% year-over-year to 106 homes, and days on market dropped to just 52, proof that buyers are off the sidelines and moving fast. Inventory keeps climbing (up 29% year-over-year to 325 homes), so there is finally real selection out there. Average sales price ticked down slightly to $298,225, but with sellers still receiving 97.8% of original list price, well priced homes are getting exactly what they are worth.

Here is what it all means. For sellers, this is a really encouraging moment. Buyers are out there, they are serious, and well prepared homes are finding their people quickly. A little planning and the right pricing strategy go a long way right now. For buyers, the extra inventory is genuinely good news. You finally have room to be thoughtful and find a home that truly fits. Just keep in mind that the favorites tend to find their buyers fast, so being ready makes all the difference. Spring Real Estate market is officially in full swing.

๐Ÿก March 2026 Market Check-In: Spring has officially sprung in the St. Cloud area housing market, and the numbers are telling a pretty interesting story.

Inventory jumped 32.5% year-over-year, which means buyers finally have some breathing room and real choices after years of slim pickings. At the same time, average sales prices climbed 11% to $304,845. That is proof that demand is still very much alive and well-priced homes are not sticking around. Closed sales dipped 10.3%, but that is just a timing quirk. Pending sales were up 17.1% in March, April and May closings are already lining up nicely.

The bottom line? Sellers, the market is rewarding well prepped, well priced homes. Buyers are out there and ready to move. Buyers, you have more options than you have had in years, so now is the time to get pre-approved and be ready when the right property hits the market. Thinking about making a move this year? Call me and let us discuss strategy.
