Increased Affordability

Lower Mortgage Rates: When interest rates drop, mortgage rates usually follow. This makes borrowing cheaper for homebuyers, reducing the monthly payments on new mortgages. As a result, purchasing a home becomes more affordable for a larger pool of buyers, potentially increasing the demand for housing.

Higher Demand

Increased Buying Power: Lower interest rates increase the buying power of potential homebuyers, allowing them to afford more expensive homes for the same monthly payment. This can lead to a surge in demand, especially in markets where housing supply is limited.

Investment Attractiveness: For investors, lower interest rates make real estate investments more attractive compared to other assets like bonds. This can lead to increased investment in the housing market, further boosting demand.
